After a non-title match against Michin on WWE SmackDown, The Storm took a shot at her upcoming challenger. This led to Mami appearing in front of the crowd and confronting Jade Cargill. Unfortunately, Cargill left the ring seconds after sharing it with the two-time Women’s World Champion.

Later, WWE uploaded a video on X where Rhea Ripley went off on Cargill and called her out. Mami claimed the champion is not a fighter but a talker, and the next time The Storm wants to mention her, she’d better put some respect on the 29-year-old star’s name.

“She wants to talk a lot of smack, but where’s the fighting, Jade? Exactly what I thought. You’re not a fighter; you’re a talker. You’re a little yapper like a little Chihuahua, aren’t ya? I’m a fighter, and you can’t fight me. Put some respect on my d**n name the next time you mention me, or I’ll make you respect me,” Ripley said.

WWE Hall of Famer speaks highly of Rhea Ripley

Rhea Ripley is arguably one of the favorites heading into WrestleMania 42. Interestingly, Mami has a rich history when it comes to The Grandest Stage of Them All, as she’s always in championship matches at The Showcase of The Immortals.

It started from WrestleMania 36 when she entered as the NXT Women’s Champion, and since 2020, the 29-year-old star has competed at the event for championship gold or defended it. Recently, Booker T spoke highly of the challenger ahead of WrestleMania 42.

Speaking on the Reality of Wrestling podcast, the Hall of Famer stated that if he were a promoter, he would always put Mami in the top spot unless a star rose to the occasion and took it away from her. It’ll be interesting to see if Rhea Ripley can leave the event with the WWE Women’s Championship.
