Rhea Ripley has been out of action for over a month now. She has left a huge space on the roster, and her absence can be felt. However, one person who misses Mami the most is her alleged ex-girlfriend, Cathy Kelley. Recently, the WWE backstage personality admitted that she was feeling lonely without the Eradicator on Raw.

Taking it to X, one fan tagged Cathy Kelley and asked her if she felt alone because of the absence of Rhea Ripley. Kelley quickly reacted to the question and responded with a message, saying she really missed Mami. Despite their on-and-off relationship, it looked like the 35-year-old star had a soft corner for Mami even now.

Recently, the former Women’s World Champion was seen having a good time with Buddy Matthews on a beach. Kelley reacted to this with a stern message, feeling jealous of the real-life couple after she claimed she would block the AEW tar. Nonetheless, the WWE personality regularly shares playful teases for the Eradicator on social media. The two stars even react and share pictures together backstage, giving proof of their solid bond behind the scenes.

The Judgment Day member announced her injury last month. She was attacked by Liv Morgan a week prior to the announcement. It is unclear at the moment when the 27-year-old star is going to return. However, Kelley and the rest of the WWE Universe are eagerly anticipating her comeback.

When Rhea Ripley might return to WWE?

Rhea Ripley has been out of action for some time now. Prior to her departure, she was on a roll. At WrestleMania XL, Mami defeated Becky Lynch to solidify her reign. However, she relinquished her title and went on hiatus to recover from the injury. Now, the question remains as to when the Eradicator might return to WWE.

At the moment, there are no concrete rumors regarding the return of the former Women’s World Champion. However, she is back at the gym. It means her recovery is going smoothly. Therefore, it is highly likely that Mami might return after SummerSlam 2024. In fact, her potential return match could take place at the next international PLE after August.

In essence, the Eradicator won’t be rushing to return to in-ring competition. It is going to be interesting to see when and where Ripley is going to appear. However, with the current happenings in WWE, it is for sure that she will be going up against Liv Morgan and her Women’s World title.
