"My man crush every day" - When WWE's Rhea Ripley dated a 10-year older wrestler in real life

In 2013, WWE SmackDown Women's Champion Rhea Ripley joined the Australian wrestling promotion RCW. During her RCW run, The Eradicator dated two of her co-workers.

Ripley initially had a romantic relationship with Australian wrestler Dane Davies, who competed under several names, including SMASH, Green SMASH, Green SMASH Ranger, and Davey Green. After they split, the 26-year-old RAW star started dating a 10-year older wrestler, Jett Armstrong.

The couple seemingly started dating around late 2016 and early 2017, as Ripley began sharing photos of them together as a couple on Instagram around that period.

In an Instagram post in March 2017, The Eradicator shared a photo with her ex-boyfriend. In the caption, she dubbed him her "man crush."

"Don't have to wait till Monday, he is my man crush everyday of the week ❤ #AppreciationPost #ManCrush," she wrote.

The Judgment Day member also referred to Armstrong as "my man" in another Instagram post in April 2017. The couple's relationship continued after Ripley signed with WWE.

However, The Eradicator stopped sharing photos with Armstrong after January 2018. In February 2019, Ripley shared her first photo with her next boyfriend, Demetri Jackson.

Rhea Ripley recently detailed her experience going on a date with a current WWE star. Check out her comments here.
