Without a doubt, Rhea Ripley is one of the most talked-about stars in the business. Recently, in a commanding appearance on the WWE Preview Special streamed on Peacock, the Eradicator showcased her dominance. She addressed prevailing questions about her match frequency and involvement with Judgment Day.

Ripley is a strong WWE World Women’s Champion, dominating in the ring and handling Judgment Day business with confidence. However, critics often vocalize concerns about Ripley’s notable title defenses and perceived focus on managerial duties rather than in-ring action.

Rhea Ripley has held the WWE Women’s Championship for an impressive and substantial duration, surpassing around 9 months as the reigning champion. Ripley’s recent match on the Monday Night Raw Day 1 edition against Ivy Nile further emphasized her prowess in the ring, successfully defending her title against a formidable opponent.

People complain that Mami doesn't have many matches, Mami doesn't do too much, she's too involved with Judgment Day. But at the end of the day, Mami's busy doing business. I'm running Monday Night Raw, and I'm running my division, and there's nothing that anyone can do about it.

Ripley confidently stated that there’s no one stopping her from doing what she believes is right.

As discussions around Ripley’s match frequency continue, the champion’s unwavering response solidifies her position as a dynamic force in WWE. Despite the criticisms, The Nightmare will continue to do what she does: dominate the women’s division.

Rhea Ripley shuts down R Truth’s attempt at Judgment Day

In the WWE Preview Special 2024 on Peacock, Rhea Ripley didn’t just address her critics but also shut down rumors regarding the potential involvement of R-Truth in Judgment Day. Ripley, known for her no-nonsense attitude, made it clear that Truth is not part of the Judgment Day.

He's breaking into our clubhouse. That's not okay. You can't just break into our clubhouse. He's putting himself into all of the things that we're working so hard for. He's coming out to the Judgment Day music. To me, he thinks he's a part of it, but we have never signed off on that.
Rhea Ripley on R-Truth

The Eradicator expressed her frustration over R-Truth’s involvement in Judgment Day. She perceives it as an intrusion into their “clubhouse” emphasizing that it’s not acceptable for him to insert himself into their group. However, Ripley clarified that they’ve never approved or endorsed his participation in the faction. Therefore, asserting a clear boundary between the veteran and the Judgement Day.

Ripley’s stern denial will probably mean nothing for R-Truth as he continues to consider himself part of the stable. On the most recent episode of Raw, the 51-year-old hilariously set up a match for Finn Balor for next week’s edition. Needless to say, the WWE Universe has had its fair share of joy watching the comedic segments on Monday nights.
