Rhea Ripley is back and better than ever! The powerhouse returned to Monday Night Raw on November 19 and made an impact that had fans buzzing. Teaming up with Bianca Belair, Jade Cargill, IYO SKY, and Naomi, Ripley stood tall during a showdown with Liv Morgan, Nia Jax, Tiffany Stratton, Raquel Rodriguez, and Candice LeRae. The clash set the stage for an electrifying WarGames match at Survivor Series: War Games, marking Ripley’s in-ring return following a real-life injury.
Ripley’s recent hiatus came after suffering a broken orbital bone, an injury that was scripted into the October 29 NXT episode when Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez were seen attacking her in the parking lot. Taking to Twitter, Ripley made a bold statement with an image of her medical scan and the chilling caption: “Mistake no.1, you left me breathing.”
WWE didn’t miss a beat capitalizing on the hype. The company just released an official “Mistake Number One” t-shirt, featuring Ripley’s medical image and fierce quote. The shirt’s description on WWE Shop reads:
“When you come for the queen, you’d best not miss. The biggest mistake any of Rhea Ripley’s adversaries can make is leaving her with a chance to retaliate. Show that you always want to see Mami to unleash her brutality by grabbing this Mistake Number One T-Shirt. The gory graphics printed across the chest let the whole WWE Universe know that anyone fortunate enough to get the upper hand on Rhea Ripley is bound to have a Riptide coming to pull them down under.”
Before her Raw return, reports hinted that Ripley’s injury wasn’t as severe as initially thought. WWE remained hopeful about her comeback and her big plans on the road to WrestleMania 41, where she’s set to play a major role.
