Rhea Ripley has commented after WWE provided an unfortunate update on her injury. On this week's episode of NXT, she was ambushed by Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez in the parking lot.
The Eradicator made a surprise appearance on the show. During a backstage segment, she came face-to-face with top NXT Superstars, including Giulia, Stephanie Vaquer, Zaria, Kelani Jordan, and Jordynne Grace. She sent them her best wishes ahead of a huge six-woman tag team match against Roxanne Perez, Cora Jade, Fallon Henley, Jacy Jayne, and Jazmyn Nyx.
Shortly afterward, cameras caught Morgan and Rodriguez exiting the NXT parking lot, as Ripley was found busted open. WWE confirmed that Ripley suffered a fractured right orbital socket and is expected to be out of action for an undisclosed amount of time.
Taking to social media, Ripley broke the silence after her injury. She warned Morgan and Rodriguez.
"Mistake no.1 You left me breathing," wrote Ripley.

Rhea Ripley revealed her reason for betraying Liv Morgan in the past
Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan were former tag team partners before The Eradicator betrayed the latter.
Speaking in a previous interview with Sportskeeda Wrestling's Dr. Chris Featherstone, the former WWE Women's World Champion explained her reason for betraying the current champion. She said:
"So I trusted her, until I started feeling like something bad was going to happen. I have been backstabbed by multiple partners prior to this, and I mean she has too. So we were both broken in the same ways and it was only about time that one of us were turning on the other. With us arguing, and us not getting along, and us losing our matches and her draining that killer side of me, and making me into this mushy little tag partner that she wanted, I felt like I was getting sculpted for a betrayal. So I thought I had to do it before she did."
At Bad Blood, Rhea Ripley failed to regain the WWE Women's World Championship.
