Rhea Ripley thanked a popular WWE star for an NSFW gift ahead of tonight's edition of RAW at TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts. Ripley confronted Women's World Champion Liv Morgan following her victory at Saturday Night's Main Event.
Liv Morgan defeated IYO SKY to retain the Women's World Championship at Saturday Night's Main Event over the weekend. Following the match, Ripley and Morgan had a confrontation on the entrance ramp and stare-down.
Ahead of tonight's episode of the red brand, The Eradicator shared a selfie on her Instagram story with IYO SKY. The Genius of the Sky gifted the former champion an NSFW Christmas sweater, and you can check it out by clicking here.
"@iyo_sky knows me so well, thank you for my sweater," Ripley wrote.
Ripley was forced to relinquish the Women's World Championship due to injury in April following WWE WrestleMania XL. Liv Morgan defeated Becky Lynch at King and Queen of the Ring earlier this year to become champion and has held the title for 205 days so far.
Bill Apter claims Rhea Ripley "changed the tide" in WWE
Legendary wrestling journalist Bill Apter recently praised Rhea Ripley as a talent and has become a major star in the wrestling business.
Speaking on Sportskeeda's The Wrestling Time Machine show, Apter claimed Ripley "redefined" the women's division in the company. The veteran added that fans expect to see the former Judgment Day member when they come to the shows, and she has become a household name in the industry.
"To me Rhea Ripley changed the tide, the riptide there. Rhea Ripley redefined the female end of WWE and I would say there are a lot of other women in there that did incredible, including Teddy's pick Nia Jax. Liv Morgan also, way up there, and so many of them... Rhea is, people expect to see her. She became a household face in the pro-wrestling business in 2024." [From 08:55 onwards]

Morgan and Ripley have been involved in a personal rivalry for months. The Women's World Champion has taken The Judgment Day and Dominik Mysterio from the 28-year-old so far. It will be fascinating to see what WWE has planned for the storyline in the weeks ahead following their confrontation at Saturday Night's Main Event.
