Rhea Ripley Starts A Potential Rivalry With Beth Phoenix

Rhea Ripley has mocked Beth Phoenix on RAW and on twitter following their violent encounter at Extreme Rules. She tweeted a message that seemed to be taking a shot at what she did to the Hall Of Famer on Saturday.

Phoenix’s husband Edge fought Finn Bálor in an I Quit match at Extreme Rules. He was poised to win the bout when Ripley’s stablemates of The Judgment Day interfered. Ripley proved to be the trump card in the contest when she handcuffed Edge to the ring rope and knocked out Phoenix with brass knuckles.

Even after a group mauling by The Judgment Day, a resilient Edge was still unwilling to say the dreaded words “I Quit”. But when Rhea put Beth’s head on a chair and threatened her with a Con-Chair-To, Edge gave in. Shockingly, she still performed the devastating maneuver on the unconscious Phoenix.

On RAW, Rhea Ripley wore an armband with the words “BETH” written on them. She seemed to be taking a low blow at Beth by wearing it because it’s generally worn to remember someone who has passed away. The official WWE on BT Sport account was quick to point out this awful message, to which she called herself RIP ley in tweet.

We haven’t heard from Beth Phoenix since the attack.

This feud between the two can lead to a great match because they are both similar in many ways. They are both big and strong. They are both gym rats and they don’t shy down from being physical with men.

The Glamazon had her last match at the Royal Rumble this year where she and Edge defeated Miz and Maryse. She is a 4 time Women’s champion in WWE.

Ripley is a former RAW Women’s champion as well as former NXT and NXT UK Women’s champion.

While they may be bitter rivals on TV now, they are friends in real life. Funny how storylines work.
