Hey everyone, it’s your boy back again with another story from the trenches. Today, I wanna talk about something that’s been buzzing around the wrestling world – Rhea Ripley’s injury. I’ve been following this closely, ’cause, let’s face it, Rhea’s a beast in the ring and any time she’s out, it’s a big deal.
So, I dug into this whole situation. First thing I did was comb through all the news after Survivor Series. You know, the usual places, wrestling news sites, social media, the whole nine yards. Turns out, Rhea’s been off TV for a bit because of an orbital bone injury. Yeah, sounds painful, right?
I wanted to know more, so I went back and watched some old matches. I remembered seeing something about a Fatal-4-Way on Raw back in June 2022. Lo and behold, there it was – Rhea took a nasty bump, her own knee right to her head. They said it messed up her teeth and even caused a brain injury. Brain injuries, man, those are scary.
But here’s the kicker – this recent orbital bone fracture, it’s a whole new thing. I learned that it happened just before Survivor Series: WarGames. WWE even confirmed it. I kept seeing the date October 29th pop up. Apparently, Liv Morgan and Rodriguez were involved in an attack that led to the injury, at least in the storyline.
I gotta say, I was surprised. Rhea’s tough as nails, but even she can’t escape the risks of the ring. I started thinking about how this would affect her push. She was clearly on track for a shot at Liv Morgan’s Women’s World Championship. Now, with this injury, I wonder what’s gonna happen next.
My Two Cents
- Wrestling’s a tough gig: This whole thing just reminded me how brutal this sport can be. These folks put their bodies on the line every time they step in the ring.
- Rhea’s resilience: I have no doubt Rhea will bounce back from this. She’s a fighter, through and through.
- The future’s uncertain: It’ll be interesting to see how WWE handles this situation. Will they put her title shot on hold? Will someone else step up to challenge Liv? Only time will tell.
Anyway, that’s my take on the Rhea Ripley injury saga. I followed the news, watched the matches, and pieced together what I could. It’s a reminder that these wrestlers are human, and injuries are a real part of the game. I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on how this all plays out. Stay tuned, folks!
