Rhea Ripley is among the most popular stars on the WWE roster. The Eradicator’s “ex” recently attempted cosplaying her.

The former Women’s World Champion and WWE backstage interviewer Cathy Kelley are close friends. The latter jokingly calls herself Mami’s “ex,” a trope they often use in their social media updates.

Ahead of the upcoming edition of Friday Night SmackDown, Cathy Kelley took to Instagram to share multiple pictures of herself dressed similar to Ripley. She even had “R+C” written on her cheek, resembling the 29-year-old’s temporary “R+D” markings from 2023 when the latter was paired with Dominik Mysterio.

“‘does anyone love tattoos and cathy kelley more than me?? naur’ – @rhearipley_wwe probably,” she wrote.

A popular WWE star explained why she has great chemistry with Rhea Ripley

Just like Cathy Kelley, former Women’s World Champion IYO SKY also shares a great dynamic with The Eradicator. The two stars have also been involved in several memorable moments. The Japanese star spoke about Rhea Ripley during her recent appearance on INSIGHT with Chris Van Vliet.

IYO SKY said that she and the former member of The Judgment Day were very different from each other. The 35-year-old added that they had stupendous chemistry because of the stark contrast in their wrestling styles.

“I think we are totally different person. I think ‘cause she’s tall, she’s muscle, and she’s so cool. I’m not cool as Rhea Ripley. Yeah, she’s super cool. Even when I just having casual conversation to look at her, she’s so cool. Like, ‘Oh my God.’ Sometimes, I feel like a fan. […] She’s so nice and muscle. I’m running fast. I’m so small, but I can flip and she’s not so flipping person like so much opposite. That’s why I think we are making great chemistry,” she said.

Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY are currently feuding with The Kabuki Warriors. Only time will tell when the two wrestle against each other the next time. The Eradicator has never defeated The Genius of the Sky one-on-one.
