Rhea Ripley Reunites With Ex-Partner On WWE SmackDown, Drops Major Tease
Former WWE Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley is one of the biggest superstars in the promotion today. She has been an outright star for the last few years and will be leading the charge for her team tomorrow night in the WarGames match.
She put together her team with some of the top stars in the Women’s division, and they were all present on tonight’s show to help Charlotte Flair in her advantage match with Asuka, which is set for later.
During her visit to SmackDown, she was reunited on screen with former Judgment Day stablemate and best friend, Damian Priest. The two are extremely loved by fans as a duo, but rarely get to see each other due to being on different brands.

Ripley and Priest have been each other’s biggest cheerleaders during their time together in NXT and on the main roster. Ripley has often relied on Priest for advice and did so once again tonight.
During her brief interaction with Priest backstage, she talked to him about running an idea past him before heading to Charlotte and helping her get ready for the match.
"Let me run an idea past you…"

She could be talking about something for the upcoming WarGames match, as Priest also has some experience in the structure, having been a part of the 2023 Men’s WarGames match.
