Rhea Ripley has become one of the biggest star powers of the WWE women’s division over the course of the past couple of years. After dealing with lackluster storylines for some time, she joined Judgment Day in the summer of 2022 and since then has gone on to become a special attraction on WWE TV. Her chemistry with on-screen lover Dominik Mysterio is also something that the fans have admired.
At the same time, Rhea Ripley also loves to showcase her real-life relationship with Buddy Matthews, and FKA Buddy Murphy in the WWE. In a recent interview, she claimed that Matthews isn’t intimated by the success that she’s having on a much larger platform, which is WWE.
