Rhea Ripley on NXT (WWE)
Rhea Ripley is a former NXT Champion and will make her Raw debut next week
Former NXT Champion Rhea Ripley will finally make her Raw debut as WWE confirmed the same recently.
A release from the company added that the Raw women’s division had been warned over the past few weeks that Ripley was coming.
The Nightmare is one of the best female talents in WWE and had dominated NXT. The Aussie won the NXT title and had some incredible feuds. It was only a matter of time before she made a move to one of the two major brands.
With Bianca Belair first coming to Raw and then to SmackDown, it only made sense to send Ripley to the Red brand.
Ripley has all the tools in her to become a top star in the brand and that is the expectations of many fans too.
Belair and Ripley were two of the outstanding talents on NXT and it is interesting to see how The EST of WWE is doing.
While she had a bit of a slow start on Raw, her star has been shining bright on SmackDown. She won the 2021 Royal Rumble and is no partnering Sasha Banks.
While Belair failed to win the Women’s Tag titles, she still faces Banks for the SmackDown title at WrestleMania 37.
It will be interesting to see what Ripley does once she features on Raw. She has fought Charlotte Flair in the past and it was The Queen who came out on top as she won the NXT title last year.
However, Ripley could also chart her path similar to what Belair has done. The Nightmare certainly looks the part and she could fight for the belt right from the first day on the Red brand.
That is what many fans predicted for The Nightmare and here are some of the reactions ahead of her Raw debut.
