Incredible stat surrounding Rhea Ripley's return to WWE
Rhea Ripley's return has been a major success for WWE so far. The Eradicator returned during the closing moments of this past Monday's edition of RAW.
Women's World Champion Liv Morgan has been toying with Dominik Mysterio during Ripley's hiatus from the company. The 27-year-old was forced to relinquish the Women's World Championship due to injury following a 380-day title reign earlier this year. She is currently embroiled in a storyline relationship with Dominik Mysterio, and Liv Morgan has been trying to seduce The Judgment Day member for months. This past Monday on RAW, Morgan and Mysterio almost kissed before Ripley made her long-awaited return.
The account "WrestleOps" on X has pointed out that Ripley's return is approaching an estimated 84 million views across all of WWE's social media platforms.
"Rhea Ripley’s return on #WWERAW this week has now amassed an estimated ~83,900,000 views across all official WWE social platforms thus far."
Liv Morgan defeated Becky Lynch with the help of Dominik Mysterio at King and Queen of the Ring to win the Women's World Championship earlier this year. The Man's contract has since expired and she is currently a free agent.
WWE legend Mark Henry comments on the storyline between Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan on RAW
Wrestling veteran Mark Henry believes Rhea Ripley will tell Liv Morgan to stay away from Dominik Mysterio on the red brand.
Speaking with Sportskeeda Wrestling's Bill Apter in an exclusive interview earlier this month, Henry predicted Ripley would tell Morgan to find her own man. The legend compared the storyline to the popular soap opera Days of Lives and added that he was a fan of it.
You can check out the interview in the video below:
"I like it too. It's like Days of Our Lives. I think Rhea comes back and is like, 'Hey, you need to find some business, girl. You need to find your own man.' Now you have a story that's being told that Dominik gets caught up in the middle, but indirectly. It's not like he's perpetuating it." [13:15 – 13:48]
Morgan was spotted backstage after Ripley's return watching the former champion argue with Dominik Mysterio. The 30-year-old had a smile on her face and it appears that her devious plan is working to perfection so far.
