Rhea Ripley became the SmackDown Women’s Champion after she defeated Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania 39. However, last week, she was presented with a new title by Adam Pearce on Monday Night RAW.
The former NXT Women’s Champion has been extremely dominant in her championship reign as she has defended her title on numerous occasions already. Nevertheless, her current gimmick has made her a fan favorite as the zealots don’t hesitate in chanting ‘mami’ anytime.

However, while Rhea Ripley made her way towards the ring, WWE commenter and former superstar, Corey Graves mentioned something that wasn’t appropriate. “Oh, you’re a big fan, I saw that picture you sent her on Instagram on her story. It was a big hit!” Graves said to Kevin Patrick.
Recently, The Eradicator uploaded a few pictures and posts on her Instagram story which consisted of the tributes, her fan gave her. Nevertheless, over of the tributes was an NSFW image, which was also shared by the former NXT Champion.
Thus, as soon as the fans got to know about the backstory of the bizarre artwork, WWE Universe stormed all the social media platforms. Consequently, the story was later deleted by Rhea Ripley. However, it’s still unknown whether she did that mistakenly or if she was messing around with her fans.
Thus, Corey Graves’s mention of Ripley’s NSFW Instagram story wasn’t found appropriate by the WWE Universe. Moreover, few of the fans were not even able to believe that the former superstar did it.

Who will face Rhea Ripley at Money in the Bank?
The Eradicator last defended her title against Natalya at WWE Live Super Show in the first week of June. However, since then, she has been in an active feud with the Queen of Harts. Natalya wants to have her hands on the title, however, Rhea Ripley has always turned out to be the biggest stone in the way.
Thus, Ripley is highly unlikely to get a match at the Money in the Bank. However, she will still have a lot of work to do as Dominik will be facing the American Nightmare, Cody Rhodes, in the O2 Arena on July 1st.
The two caught heat after Dominik Mysterio and Rhea Ripley interrupted Cody Rhodes during The Miz TV segment. Moreover, with the help of some distraction from The Miz, Dom Dom also managed to slap the American Nightmare and run away. Consequently, the match was made official last week.
