WWE is currently running a tour of Japan, with Rhea Ripley working tag matches, allowing Japanese fans a rare opportunity to see her in action. However, there is now concern she could be set for a spell on the sidelines after a violent mid-air collision with IYO SKY left her face bloodied and needing help to the back. And while it’s likely a good sign that she is already using social media, the gruesome visual she shared on X suggests there is a high possibility her busted nose is broken.
29-year-old Ripley, born Demi Bennett, signed with WWE in 2017, and after impressing during runs in NXT UK and NXT, she received her main roster call-up in 2021. Subsequently, she has been presented as one of the most dominant women on the roster. Therefore, it is now considered a matter of when, rather than if, she will headline a WrestleMania, with it believed she just needs the right opponent to share the spotlight with.
