Rhea Ripley has had only two title defenses since winning her title at WrestleMania 39. She defeated Charlotte Flair in a spectacular match to win the championship. Ever since, Ripley has defeated Zelina Vega at Backlash and squashed Natalya in a 70-second match at Night of Champions.

In a recent interview, the champion revealed the reason why she has not had a lot of matches since. Ripley revealed that she has knee problems going on, and the injury has been bothering her a lot lately. Therefore, the 26-year-old has been avoiding wrestling matches. Due to the same reason, Ripley does not have a match at the upcoming Money In The Bank.

However, the champion has been a constant presence on WWE programming. She accompanied Dominik Mysterio for his match and will do the same for his match at MITB against Cody Rhodes.
