Rhea Ripley is one of the most popular and successful WWE Superstars despite having spent less than five years on the main roster. However, fans want a former champion to go one-on-one with her for the first time in over five years to end Mami's reign as the Women's World Champion.
Earlier this year, Ripley went head-to-head against WWE Hall of Famer Beth Phoenix and lost during a mixed tag team match. After the loss, Rhea Ripley went on to WrestleMania 39, where she defeated Charlotte Flair and won the SmackDown Women's Championship.
On the latest episode of Monday Night RAW, The Eradicator had a backstage segment with The Miz where she brushed him off by performing Maryse's classic taunt. The WWE Universe wants Maryse to return to the promotion and handle Mami for disrespecting The A-Lister.

Maryse hasn't had a singles match since 2018, when she faced Brie Bella on an episode of SmackDown. She last teamed up with The Miz in 2022 to take on the team of Edge and Beth Phoenix at Royal Rumble. It will be interesting to see if Maryse ever returns to compete inside the squared circle.
Rhea Ripley is set to defend her title at WWE Crown Jewel 2023
Earlier this year, Rhea Ripley was crowned the Women's World Champion following the Draft when the company decided to introduce two new titles in the women's division. Meanwhile, Asuka became the WWE Women's Champion on Friday Night SmackDown.
However, the number of title defenses on weekly television or premium live events fell for Mami as she was running out of challengers on Monday Night RAW. After a lackluster feud with Natalya, Rhea Ripley injured Liv Morgan and feuded with Raquel Rodriguez.
Unfortunately, Dirty Dominik Mysterio and The Judgment Day have helped her to keep the title against different challengers over the past few months. Later, Nia Jax entered the title picture when she returned to WWE and attacked Mami and Raquel Rodriguez.
The women's division on the red brand has started to gain momentum, and every superstar is going after the champion. Earlier this month, management announced that Mami will defend her Women's World Championship against Nia Jax, Raquel Rodriguez, Zoey Stark, and Shayna Baszler at Crown Jewel 2023.
