Rhea Ripley is having a blast in WWE, as she has begun a new ride on RAW, taking over the tag team division alongside her once rival, IYO SKY. However, despite all her success, Mami could shockingly walk away from the Stamford-based promotion.
Recently, the company hosted shows in Japan, and Ripley was part of the tour. During a Fatal Four-Way bout for the Women’s World Championship between Ripley, IYO SKY, Raquel Rodriguez, and Stephanie Vaquer at SuperShow Japan, Tokyo, Mami suffered a scary accident, injured her nose, and was captured pouring blood all over the place. She had to be assisted backstage. The 29-year-old star later shared a graphic video of herself with her nose brutally bruised.
Following the scary accident, Rhea might walk away from the Stamford-based promotion and go on medical leave until the upcoming edition of Saturday Night’s Main Event. Mami was brutally attacked last week by The Kabuki Warriors on RAW, and the promotion could use the angle to write her off.
The former Judgment Day member could later return after SNME, on the road to Survivor Series, and might even take part in a Women’s WarGames match.
That said, the angle proposed above is hypothetical, and nothing has been confirmed as of now.
WWE Superstar Rhea Ripley talks about her husband’s support
Rhea Ripley is married to former WWE and current AEW star Buddy Matthews, and due to them being in different promotions, it gets difficult for them to find time for each other.
Speaking on Allenownz Wrasslin, the 29-year-old star talked about her husband, Buddy, and was grateful for his support, as he understands the pro-wrestling business and her schedule.
“Umm, it’s needed. It’s very much needed. Umm, this is such a wild, strange, weird business, and a lot of people don’t understand it. So to be able to find a spouse that, like, actually understands everything that you’re going through and isn’t gonna judge you or get mad at you for you not being able to respond on a work day. Like that stuff, that is, like, so crucial to me and beneficial because, like, I don’t have to explain myself,” she said.
The severity of Mami’s injury hasn’t been revealed as of writing this piece. It remains to be seen if Ripley is seriously injured and what plans the WWE creative team has in store for her in the coming weeks.
