Stephanie Vaquer has set her sights on Rhea Ripley.

Vaquer handed Tiffany Stratton her first loss of 2025 at Crown Jewel PLE, winning the Women’s Crown Jewel Championship in the process.

La Primera has had an enviable year for any WWE superstar, not only making the jump to the main roster from NXT, but also winning several honors ever since.

Her first major accomplishment came at Evolution, when the 32-year-old won the 20-woman battle royal for a shot at the Women’s World Championship at Clash in Paris.

While that match got shelved due to Naomi’s pregnancy, she remained as the contender, competing for the now-vacant championship in a match against Iyo Sky at Wrestlepalooza.

Having previously held the title, Sky went in with the advantage, but succumbed to Stephanie Vaquer’s corkscrew moonsault. Vaquer, thus, became the first Chilean woman to win a world championship in the Stamford promotion.

Stephanie Vaquer Wants To Fight Rhea Ripley

Stephanie Vaquer and Rhea Ripley share a mutual respect and admiration for each other’s in-ring work, which is evidenced by their previously shared segments on RAW.

Ripley, who celebrated her 29th birthday on Saturday, teamed up with Iyo Sky to defeat The Kabuki Warriors in a tag team match.

During the Crown Jewel post-show, Vaquer was asked who she would like to challenge after her recent victories against the likes of Sky and Stratton.

“Everyone,” she joked. “I don’t know if you’re happy with that, but Rhea Ripley. Rhea Ripley, she’s an amazing wrestler, she’s an amazing person, too, and she has a really good experience here. So, I really want to face Rhea Ripley.”
