En route to Wrestlemania 40, the heated feud between Rhea Ripley and Becky Lynch continued and it came to major blows on WWE Raw, this week. After some remarks were made toward Ripley’s recent antics from WWE Live Event, the latter made things extremely personal to gain the upper hand ahead of their scheduled title match.
Flanked by Dominik Mysterio, Rhea Ripley made her way down to the ring on WWE Raw to address Becky Lynch as the challenger allegedly wasn’t giving her full attention. To open up the promo, Ripley mentioned that, unlike her opponent, she can make the world buzz about herself without even stepping into the ring every week. That led to The Man finally coming around in Chicago, Illinois to confront her WrestleMania opponent.
Becky Lynch was quick to lay the Smackdown on Ripley. She said they have very different definitions of what it is like to be a champion. It was noted how Ripley has been seeking attention by posting photos of her a** on the internet, and for her, it’s busting her a** in the ring.
