Rhea Ripley is one of the top female talents in the current WWE scenario and she certainly enjoys the fame. Given that WWE has built her up in an indomitable way, there are a few who could claim of beating her in singles contests, especially as a champion. At the same time, we do see her in a romantic involvement on WWE TV with Dominik Mysterio.
Following the Backlash 2023 premium live event, Dominik Mysterio was showing off his on-screen girlfriend Rhea Ripley’s buns on Instagram with the following picture:
For those who don’t know, Dominik is not Rhea Ripley’s real-life boyfriend. But rather, the current AEW World Trios Champion Buddy Matthews (fka Buddy Murphy in WWE) is dating the Australian WWE talent. After seeing Dominik’s post on Instagram, he claimed the following,
“He might be written on ya bum… but I get to touch it!”
As you can see, even Rhea Ripley couldn’t contain her laughter in the post. Dominik has her own girlfriend in real life and the two are reportedly committed to each other for a future marriage. As for her MAMI, she’s moved on from her past boyfriend and entered this new relationship with Buddy in recent times.

Rhea Ripley defeated Zelina Vega at WWE Backlash 2023
As seen this past Saturday night, in the fourth match of WWE Backlash 2023, Rhea Ripley defeated Zelina Vega to retain her Smackdown Women’s Title. It was her first title defense since winning the belt at Wrestlemania 39. Following the match, Ripley addressed her title win, as well as how much hostile the crowd was in Puerto Rico while supporting their favorite Zelina Vega.
“I don’t really care if the crowd was strongly behind Zelina. I don’t care about these people. They don’t mean anything to me, just like Zelina doesn’t,” Rhea Ripley said about her dominant win at WWE Backlash 2023.
“It felt amazing because they were behind Zelina Vega so much, and I shut them all up for good when Mami walked out the ‘SmackDown’ Women’s Champion still, and Zelina Vega was left in the ring like a little pretzel.”
Prior to Backlash, Rhea Ripley was drafted to Raw with the rest of Judgment Day members – Dominik, Finn Balor, and Damian Priest. However, WWE is yet to address her status as the reigning SmackDown Women’s Champion after entering the Raw brand. In a similar way, the Raw Women’s Champion Bianca Belair was also sent to the blue brand which possibly create the situation of a title swap in due course.
