SummerSlam was a nightmare for a woman who’s often dubbed The Nightmare. She’s Rhea Ripley. At the PLE in Cleveland, the Aussie grappler saw her longtime beau Dominik Mysterio ditch her for Liv Morgan. Ripley was helpless as she witnessed Dom and Liv make out to cement their romantic ties. But where does Mami go from here?
As per Cory Hays of Pro Wrestling Nexus, she’s in for a mixed tag team showdown. Having said that, Rhea Ripley is set to join forces with Damian Priest to take on Liv Morgan and Dominik Mysterio at Bash in Berlin. It’s expected to get an official nod this week on Raw. WWE has already announced that The Eradicator will kick things off this Monday.
She and Priest have their backs against the wall with a revamped Judgment Day spearheaded by Finn Balor keen on subduing them. Last week, The Terror Twins stood tall. First, Damian Priest toyed with JD McDonagh. However, as the latter was about to crumble, his Judgment Day buddies arrived at his aid. Priest was outnumbered for a while until Rhea came out to a deafening ovation.
She went right after Morgan and Mysterio. Somehow, “Dirty” Dom escaped. However, the Women’s World Champion suffered the wrath of an irate Ripley. Dominik once again saved the day for his new girlfriend by pulling her out of harm’s way. Back in the ring, Priest and Rhea wiped out McDonagh to make a statement.
Ripley and Morgan have since trades barbs on social media. Recently, Liv mocked the ex-Judgment Day member for catching up with her Dom-Dom over alike tattoos prior to their showdown at SummerSlam. But now, the dynamics have undergone an unprecedented flip.
What did CM Punk tell Rhea Ripley before SummerSlam?
Apart from whatever went down after her match at SummerSlam, it was not easy for Rhea Ripley to stay serene. Why so? It’s simple as she was making a return to the ring for the first time since WrestleMania XL.
For the unversed, she has previously sustained a panic attack before toppling Becky Lynch at The Grandest Stage of Them All. This time around, she was seen getting comforted by CM Punk. In a behind-the-scenes footage posted by WWE on their YouTube channel, the 27-year-old had a transient pep talk with Punk.
He made sure Ripley was free of butterflies in her stomach, if any. She went out and put up a solid opener with Liv Morgan. Even a bulged out shoulder didn’t bother Rhea as she herself popped it back into the socket.
