The WWE Universe was left in shock after Rhea Ripley made her return on Monday Night RAW this week, much to the chagrin of her beloved Dominik Mysterio and the stunning reaction of her rival, Liv Morgan.
Rhea Ripley’s entrance music hit right after Morgan and Dominik emerged victorious over Rey Mysterio and Zelina Vega in the main event on the July 8 episode of RAW. Liv quickly fled through the crowd as she stormed to the ring, leaving Ripley to confront Dominik. She left the ringside visibly furious with him over his actions in recent months.
However, an interesting detail that many fans missed was a change that Rhea Ripley made, hinting at a split from Dominik Mysterio. During her time as a member of The Judgment Day, Ripley had the ‘R+D’ letters on her cheek as a homage to her strong relationship with her Dom-Dom.
But as the former WWE Women’s World Champion returned after months of being sidelined with an injury, the letters on her cheek changed to ‘R+R’, possibly hinting that she wants nothing to do with Dominik Mysterio now.
Rhea Ripley’s return has breathed new life into the WWE storyline, leaving fans eagerly anticipating the next developments on RAW surrounding herself, Dominik Mysterio and the woman who took months off her career, Liv Morgan.
