Seth Rollins vs Drew McIntyre: Rhea Ripley's true intentions to be revealed at Crown Jewel? Potential twist explored

Seth Rollins vs. Drew McIntyre is the first match announced for Crown Jewel 2023, but Rhea Ripley may also have a part in their championship match. The Eradicator has proven vital to The Judgment Day's success, and she may be working on another one.

Rhea Ripley has been talking with several superstars for the past few weeks. Aside from trying to recruit Jey Uso, she was also seen chatting with Drew McIntyre last week and Seth Rollins this week. While it may look like she is failing with her actions, this could be one of her ploys to lower their guard and add another piece of gold to the Judgment Day.

Rhea could be simply playing with Seth and Drew so that by Crown Jewel 2023, their guard will be low enough for Damian Priest to cash in. On this week's RAW, Ripley talked with Seth Rollins and insisted he ally with The Judgment Day. Last week, McIntyre also said that what they discussed was none of his opponent's business.

On a previous episode of RAW, Priest even attempted to cash in against Seth Rollins, but Drew stopped this from happening. This could be another ploy of The Eradicator to make them think they won't do it again as he keeps failing.

Could Rhea Ripley's interference between Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre's feud be for another purpose?

Ripley helped McIntyre win against Sami Zayn this week on RAW

One of the notable parts of RAW in recent weeks is the transformation of The Scottish Warrior. Some believe he is set for a heel turn, and with his secrecy towards Rhea, something else might be brewing between them.

While on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW, Vince Russo explained that if Rhea Ripley is recruiting members to The Judgment Day, one will eventually agree, and he believes it will be Drew McIntyre.

"To me, the best thing they are doing is if Rhea Ripley is trying to recruit everybody, she's gotta get one and you know to me, it looks like that one is gonna be Drew McIntyre, and you know what bro, if they do that, you know, at least it'll be something and maybe they do it."

Who else will be performing at WWE Crown Jewel 2023?
