WWE RAW Superstar Rhea Ripley represented the red brand at Survivor Series in the 5-on-5 Women's Survivor Series tag team elimination match.

Many members of the WWE Universe were surprised to see Ripley's tag team partner Nikki A.S.H not included in the line-up for Team RAW at the event.

The Nightmare admitted that not having the Scottish superstar on the team was "a little bit disrespectful":

“To not have her on the team is a little bit disrespectful. To have one half of your tag team champions on the team and not the other half, it just seems a little silly to me. We obviously work well enough together to be the champions, so why not have Nikki on the team with us? I think we could really make some magic, and I’m just disappointed, I really am,” she said.

Despite being eliminated by SmackDown's Shayna Baszler, Rhea Ripley's team ultimately left Survivor Series victorious. Bianca Belair was the sole survivor and won the match for the red brand.

Since debuting in the Women's Royal Rumble match earlier this year, Rhea Ripley has had a pretty incredible year on the WWE main roster.

The Australian star has won numerous championships and competed in high profile matches at events such as WWE WrestleMania and SummerSlam.

When asked to pick her favorite moment from the last 12 months, Ripley admitted that it was tough but she would have to go with her WrestleMania match against Asuka:

“It’s hard to really pick because there have been so many different things that I’ve done, and it’s insane to think of how much I’ve accomplished. I think the number one thing of course would be WrestleMania. Pretty big deal! Something I dreamt of since being a kid,” she said.

Ripley defeated Asuka at WrestleMania 37 Night Two, winning her first RAW Women's Championship in the process.
