Rhea Ripley needs to be put together with 6 ft 5 in WWE star, says veteran (Exclusive)
Rhea Ripley is currently feuding with Liv Morgan in WWE, which is generating quite the hype. However, veteran Vince Russo believes she should be teamed up with another star as soon as possible.
The star in question is Damian Priest. Standing at an imposing 6 ft and 5 in height, he has an imposing physique and is arguably the strongest member of the Judgment Day. Despite being in the same faction, Damian and Rhea have not been involved in storylines together in the last few weeks. According to Vince Russo, the two stars could be great together as a separate duo.
Speaking on Sportskeeda's Writing with Russo, the veteran stated:
"Rhea Ripley and Damian Priest is money. There is no doubt about it. You put those two together, and all of a sudden, I am a casual fan; I am changing channels, and I see these two. I am stopping. They are legitimate bonafide stars, and that is what they need to do," Russo said. [9:09 onwards]
The WWE veteran has previously criticized Rhea Ripley's return segment
According to Vince Russo, the Eradicator's first segment after her lengthy hiatus was poorly booked and lacked punch.
Speaking on Legion of RAW, the WWE veteran talked about how Ripley's returning segment had her only setting up her match against Liv Morgan at SummerSlam. According to him, fans deserved a more meaningful comeback.
"We're waiting three months for Rhea Ripley to come back and we have an opening segment that's so anti-climactic. You're gonna sit there and tell me how great this is, bro? That's why it's freaking pointless," Russo said. [2:46 onwards]
As of now, it remains to be seen what is next for Rhea Ripley down the line.
