WWE Superstar Rhea Ripley is on a big babyface run right now. The Eradicator is actively feuding with Liv Morgan for the Women’s World Championship. Although Mami is yet to win her belt back and settle her woes with The Judgment Day, she could soon turn heel. Moreover, she could also call out CM Punk’s wife, AJ Lee, for a WrestleMania 41 match.
Rhea Ripley and CM Punk are great friends in real life. The duo hangs out with each other often, and recently, Punk shared a couple of images on Instagram where he and Mami shared the frame from a WWE gym and the kickoff show of the RAW Netflix premiere.
Interestingly, Michael Cole introduced The Best in the World at the show by addressing him as the husband of AJ Lee. This could be a subtle hint from the Stamford-based promotion that the Black Widow could soon return. Moreover, it won’t be surprising to see the three-time WWE Divas Champion go for another singles title.
This could rile up Rhea Ripley, who also wants the title, causing her to turn heel and take on Lee. While WWE can move the storyline in this direction, all of this is speculation.
Rhea Ripley could also be facing Becky Lynch
Becky Lynch held the Women’s World Championship before Liv Morgan defeated her in May 2024 in a steel cage match. Although she is currently a free agent, The Man could soon return to the company to fight for the title again. Moreover, according to Xero News, WrestleMania 41 could see The Man in a Triple Threat match with Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan.
The return of the seven-time WWE Women’s Champion when The Eradicator is so close to winning her title back could cause her to turn heel. Moreover, the fact that Mami never lost her title could also motivate her to go lawless and adopt her Judgment Day persona.
Interestingly, Becky Lynch defeated Liv Morgan at Elimination Chamber to earn a title shot against Ripley at WrestleMania XL. Then, Mami retained her title by beating the Irishwoman at Mania. After The Eradicator was forced to relinquish the title and leave to recover from her injury, Lynch won the title via a tournament only to lose it to Morgan again.
Since then, the inaugural Women’s Crown Jewel Champion has bested Mami several times with the help of The Judgment Day. It would be interesting to see if and when these women again face each other for the gold.
