Does WWE Superstar Rhea Ripley's real-life boyfriend follow Dominik Mysterio on social media?
Rhea Ripley is one of the most popular WWE superstars right now. Her storyline with Dominik Mysterio is often one of the most talked about topics in wrestling. It must not be forgotten that in real life, the SmackDown Women's Champion is in a relationship with AEW's Buddy Matthews fka Buddy Murphy.
While wrestlers are in character on television, their social media activity gives fans a peek into their real-life sensibilities. It is interesting to note that while Matthews follows Dominik Mysterio on Instagram, the latter has not returned the favor to the former.
While the Eradicator is not in a storyline relationship with Dominik, they have often been shown to be very fond of each other on WWE programming. This has led to numerous social media interactions between Rhea Ripley and Buddy Matthews, owing to the couple's real-life ties.
Both of them are champions in their respective promotions. Matthews is the current AEW Trios Champion alongside Malakai Black and Brody King as part of the House of Black. Rhea Ripley is the SmackDown Women's Champion, having won the title in an instant classic against Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania 39.
Rhea Ripley has teased Buddy Matthews' return to WWE before
Buddy Murphy enjoyed a fairly successful career in WWE prior to his release in 2021. He won the NXT Tag Team Championship, Cruiserweight Championship, and the RAW Tag Team Championship once each.
Rhea Ripley recently spoke about her real-life partner's potential return to the Stamford-based company:
"Ohh, Maybe, maybe. I don't know. So, I'm very convincing. I'm a very convincing girl, you know. I normally get what I want. So, it might happen, you never know. But right now I'm happy with my DomDom. I'm happy going out there with him and Finn and Damian and I mean, you never know what the future holds. It might happen," she said. [0:40 - 1:04]
The storyline possibilities are endless when it comes to Buddy Matthews in WWE. The Judgement Day is feuding with Rey Mysterio and the LWO right now. Triple H could be inclined to reignite the feud between Murphy and the Master of the 619.
A jealousy angle involving Buddy and Dominik Mysterio over Rhea Ripley could also intrigue viewers, as those types of storylines have drawn attention in the past. It remains to be seen if the Game will act on this.
