Rhea Ripley demonstrated her championship power with a stunning win over Becky Lynch at WrestleMania Night One. Her victory, however, was short-lived, as Liv Morgan returned to RAW wanting payback.
Morgan launched a vicious attack on Ripley during the exhibition, causing the Women’s World Champion to injure her shoulder. As a result, Ripley was forced to give up her title during the 4/15 broadcast of WWE Raw.
Rhea Ripley’s Reign
A recent update from Wrestling Observer Radio sheds information on the extent of Ripley’s shoulder issue. It reveals an AC Joint sprain, with a recovery time of 4-6 weeks for mobility restoration and about three months before she can return to in-ring action.
With Ripley potentially gone for five months, WWE must announce a new Women’s World Champion on next week’s Monday Night Raw.
Fans are anxiously awaiting Ripley’s return and the progress of the women’s division during her absence. The vacancy in the Women’s World Championship allows fresh competitors to step up and make their mark on WWE history.
The anticipation mounts as fans speculate on the impact of Ripley’s absence and who will emerge as the next Women’s World Champion. With the title vacant, the women’s division is ripe for new narratives and rivalries to unfold, presenting opportunities for rising stars to shine.
As the landscape of WWE undergoes this transformation, the upcoming weeks on Monday Night Raw promise to be filled with intrigue and excitement as competitors vie for championship glory.
