Rhea Ripley Fires Back At WWE Fan Questioning Her Injury

Rhea Ripley returned to Monday Night RAW on November 10 to much fanfare, but with a noticeable change.

In the main event of the evening, Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss lost their women’s tag team titles to The Kabuki Warriors.

While the match ended, a beating for the babyfaces ensued, as Nia Jax and Lash Legend joined Asuka and Kairi Sane to attack Flair and Bliss.

First, it was Iyo Sky who came for the save, but was neutralized. This resulted in Rhea Ripley showing up, having been taken out by Asuka at Crown Jewel.

However, Ripley wore a face mask to protect her nose.

After Crown Jewel, a few WWE superstars headed to Japan for a two-night event, during which the Australian superstar legitimately broke her nose, leaving her dazed and concussed.

Upon seeing Ripley’s mask, a fan took to X and questioned the legitimacy of her injury, stating that she now wears it “for decoration,” referring to previous instances where Ripley had worn masks.

To this, the former Women’s World Champion jokingly snapped at the fan and replied:

Wish my nose got that memo

Rhea Ripley Announces The Final Member Of Her WarGames Team

Before the November 21 edition of SmackDown, both women’s teams competing in WarGames had four members each; however, by the end of the night, all five members had been confirmed.

In the main event segment, Rhea Ripley and her babyface teammates came to the ring to reveal the fifth member, which turned out to be AJ Lee.

The joy lasted only a short while, as the heels attacked Ripley, Sky, Bliss, and Flair, who were in the ring.

As Lee ran to the ring to assist them, she was tackled by Becky Lynch, who lost her Women’s Intercontinental Championship on RAW due to Lee’s interference.

The heels continued their beatdown of Ripley’s team, as the segment ended with Lynch joining the Asuka-led team.
