6-time champion to return and join Rhea Ripley's side? Exploring potential surprise on WWE RAW

Rhea Ripley was betrayed by Dominik Mysterio at SummerSlam. Tonight's edition of RAW will feature the aftermath of the kiss that left the WWE Universe in utmost shock. Although there were speculations of a Mysterio betrayal, no one thought he'd break Mami's heart in the manner that he did.

Dirty Dom exited the Cleveland Browns Stadium with Liv Morgan before Damian Priest could get his hands on him but he possibly can't escape on Monday Night RAW. However, Priest might not be the only one who could be in The Eradicator's corner tonight. In a surprising turn of events, her former rival and six-time champion, Raquel Rodriguez could make her return and be Rhea Ripley's pillar of strength.

Morgan and Rodriguez were tag team partners in 2023. They lost the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship to Chelsea Green and Sonya Deville because Rhea Ripley attacked Rodriguez backstage. Following that, Morgan was supposed to take on Ripley but the match never started owing to the latter bashing her with a steel chair resulting in the former Riott Squad member being written off.

After the above incident, Rodriguez challenged Ripley multiple times for the title but never emerged victorious. Finally, she was pulled from the active roster and later revealed her struggles with a medical condition.

When Rodriguez left, Liv was on the right side of things. However, Morgan embraced her dark side which didn't just hurt Ripley physically but emotionally also. She truly took everything from The Eradicator. However, Rodriguez can still choose to be on the right side of things, and decide to align herself with Ripley instead.

Now, while Rodriguez can easily align with The Women's World Champion to bury the person who cost her the tag team title, she can choose a path devoid of betrayals and sneaky plans. The 33-year-old can reveal that as much as she wants to defeat The Eradicator, she will not be a part of Liv Morgan's Revenge Tour.

When Rodriguez aligns herself with Rhea Ripley, it can trigger The Eradicator's babyface turn as well. Together, Rhea Ripley and Raquel Rodriguez can become a demolishing force that Liv Morgan simply cannot withstand. She won't be able to keep her title safe regardless of how much Dominik Mysterio interferes in her matches.

Once Ripley defeats Morgan to become the champion, she can show her gratitude to Rodriguez by giving her a title shot.

Rhea Ripley wasn't the only Judgment Day member who was betrayed at SummerSlam 2024

After Dominik Mysterio betrayed Rhea Ripley, Damian Priest was furious. In his furious state of mind, he held Finn Balor by the collar, demanding answers from him. Of course, this did not sit well with 'The Prince.'

During The Archer of Infamy's title match against Gunther, the former almost had The Ring General pinned. In a shocking swerve, Balor put Gunther's leg on the ropes, forcing the referee to stop the pinfall count. Damian Priest was left fuming when he re-watched the moment on the big screen.

He lost focus of what was important for a moment and went after Finn Balor's throat. However, Gunther took advantage of the distracted El Campeón and held him in a lock until Priest passed out. The referee called for the bell when he stopped responding.

Tonight's Monday Night RAW will reveal the fate of The Judgment Day, and it will be interesting to see which side the latest member of the group, Carlito picks.
