Mami is back as Rhea Ripley made her return on WWE Raw and it seems Dominik Mysterio might have a lot of explaining to do.

Rhea Ripley was one of WWE’s most dominant champions, holding the Women’s World Championship for 380 days. The Judgment Day’s Eradicator continued her success at WrestleMania 40 as she defeated Becky Lynch to retain her gold.

However, on the Raw following WWE’s showpiece event, disaster struck. Rhea Ripley was attacked backstage by Liv Morgan with Ripley’s shoulder being driven into the wall and it seemed that beyond storyline, that caused a very real injury.

On Raw in Montreal, Rhea Ripley vacated her Women’s World Championship only to be taunted by Liv Morgan, and things have got so much worse in Ripley’s absence.

Not only has Liv Morgan captured the Women’s World Title, but she has also sunk her claws into The Judgment Day. Morgan has found favour with Finn Balor and JD McDonagh after helping them win the World Tag Team Championship but it is her relentless pursuit of Dominik Mysterio that has raised the most eyebrows.

Rhea Ripley Ends Dom’s Fun On WWE Raw

On Raw in Ottawa, Dominik Mysterio teamed with Liv Morgan to defeat Rey Mysterio and Zelina Vega in a mixed tag team match. Prior to the bout, Morgan was caught stretching Mysterio out backstage by the rest of his group with Damian Priest less than thrilled that their entanglement was still an issue.

After Morgan and Mysterio won their match, their in-ring celebrations got a little overzealous with Liv Morgan pulling her partner down on top of her. As they looked like they were about to kiss, Rhea Ripley’s music hit and The Judgment Day’s Eradicator marched to the ring while Liv Morgan ran off through the crowd. Ripley got in Mysterio’s face and it looks like he has some explaining to do.
