WWE's Rhea Ripley has a heartfelt reaction to her boyfriend Buddy Matthews' World Heavyweight title win
Rhea Ripley's relationship with Buddy Matthews has been a matter of public knowledge, despite her current WWE storyline with Dominik Mysterio. Naturally, after Matthews picked up a major championship, she was ready to show her support.
Buddy Matthews recently competed outside of AEW at Melbourne Championship Wrestling's The House Always Wins pay-per-view, where he took on then-reigning champion Mitch Waterman. Matthews then ended Waterman's 336-day reign, becoming the new MCW World Heavyweight Champion.
In light of his victory, the official MCW Instagram account shared a graphic of Buddy Matthews shortly after defeating Waterman.
"AND NEW! @snm_buddy made history at #MCWHAW becoming a 2 time MCW World Heavyweight Champion!" @mcitywrestling posted.
In light of Matthews' stunning achievement, Rhea Ripley commented on his post with a single emoji.
Ripley has never hidden her affection or support for Buddy, and even took to social media some time ago sporting some of his personal merch in support of the AEW star.
