#6 Rhea Ripley makes her main roster debut on WWE RAW

This week's episode of WWE RAW will see Rhea Ripley make her much-awaited main roster debut. The promotion confirmed the date of her arrival on the Red brand last week. The fans are excited to welcome one of the most brutal superstars on NXT. Ripley has already established her dominance on the Black and Gold brand and will look to do the same on Monday nights.

Several good feuds await Ripley on WWE RAW. Last year, Charlotte Flair defeated her to become the NXT Women's Champion at WrestleMania. Ripley might be keen to seek revenge against The Queen by pinning her at WrestleMania this year. She also shares a brutal history with Shayna Baszler that dates back to their NXT days.

A rivalry between both these superstars guarantees entertainment, and it has the potential to change the women's division on WWE RAW forever. Alexa Bliss also has a bone to pick with Ripley as the latter had eliminated Bliss from the Women's Royal Rumble match in a humiliating manner earlier this year. Lastly, Ripley can also set her sights on the WWE RAW Women's Championship and kickstart a feud with Asuka right after her debut tonight.
