Interesting details about the mask Rhea Ripley wore at WWE Survivor Series: WarGames

WWE Superstar Rhea Ripley participated in the fourth WarGames match of her career at the Survivor Series: WarGames Premium Live Event. The Eradicator came out with a special mask for the show.

Women's World Champion Liv Morgan and her ally Raquel Rodriguez brutally attacked Ripley in the parking lot on the October 29 edition of NXT. The former Judgment Day member was forced out of action following the assault due to an orbital bone injury. Rhea Ripley returned to television on the November 18 episode of Monday Night RAW, wearing a transparent protective mask.

On the go-home edition of SmackDown ahead of the PLE, Rhea Ripley showed up with a black-colored mask. At Survivor Series, she wore a specially curated mask sculpted and painted by Special Makeup Effects artist Jason Baker. After the show, he shared a post on X (FKA Twitter) to thank his crew for working on Thanksgiving Day to help him complete the project on time:

"'Even in Hell, Mami is always on top!'Protective mask for @RheaRipley_WWE #survivorserieswargames. Sculpted and painted by me. Such a unique challenge incorporating Rhea’s actual protective face mask into something elaborate and still functional. A huge thank you to my awesome crew who worked a 14hr shift with me on Thanksgiving Day to make sure we made our quick turnaround deadline," wrote Jason.

Wrestling veteran shared his honest opinion on Rhea Ripley showing up wearing a protective mask

Former WWE Manager Dutch Mantell was impressed by Rhea Ripley's new look, which saw her wear a protective mask on her return from injury.

During a previous edition of Sportskeeda Wrestling's Smack Talk, Mantell stated that he liked Rhea's mask. He pointed out it gave the former Women's World Champion a different look. The 75-year-old claimed he enjoyed the segment and the entire show:

"I liked her mask. The cover for the face. It gave her a different look too. I enjoyed this segment too, because at least it made sense. Even if you go back and put it together in context, it all makes sense. Of course, you're shooting for the pay-per-view in eight days, so they're pulling all these pieces and putting it together, so it all fits neatly on the PPV. I think it's going to work; I enjoyed it. Good show. One of the better shows I've seen in like a month or two," he said. [40:08 - 40:50]
