WWE Superstar Rhea Ripley Unveils Gruesome Injury After Intense Japan Match

WWE Superstars returned to Japan recently for an exhilarating live event. The card featured a host of well-known wrestlers, including CM Punk, Asuka, Dominik Mysterio, and Rhea Ripley. During the show, Rhea Ripley endured a serious injury while competing in a four-way match.

Injury Details from Rhea Ripley’s Japan Match

Rhea Ripley faced Iyo Sky, Raquel Rodriguez, and WWE Women’s Champion Stephanie Vaquer in a gripping match. During a pivotal moment, Raquel threw Iyo towards Rhea. Both athletes collided mid-air, resulting in Rhea suffering a significant nose injury.

Following the incident, officials promptly checked on her. The collision left Rhea visibly shaken, and she required assistance to exit the ring. Her injury prompted a quick medical response, as she had a bleeding nose that needed immediate attention.

Post-Injury Responses and Fan Interaction

Rhea Ripley took to her official X account to share updates from the event. She posted videos and photos highlighting her experience in Japan, including moments of her sitting ringside and receiving medical help.

  • Rhea displayed a video showing her nose with swabs to halt the bleeding.
  • She revealed a slight bruise on one side of her nose but managed to smile and give a thumbs-up to fans.
  • In a lighthearted post, Rhea joked about her injury with a close-up photo of her face and a picture of her dog, humorously captioning them as “Twins.”

In her post, Ripley expressed gratitude to her fans in Japan, adding a crying-laughing emoji along with “I still love you!”

Upcoming Events and Rhea’s Status

As of now, the extent of Rhea’s injury remains uncertain. If necessary, she may return wearing a protective mask. The next WWE event, “Saturday Night’s Main Event,” is scheduled for November 1. However, her injury status for this and other upcoming events has yet to be confirmed.

Rhea Ripley’s injury is part of a troubling trend within WWE, as several top performers have faced setbacks recently. WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins is sidelined due to a severe shoulder injury that requires surgery. Ilja Dragunov returned to WWE SmackDown after a prolonged absence due to injury, while popular star Jacob Fatu is also out due to a recent on-screen injury angle.
