Rhea Ripley picks stars for her WWE Survivor Series WarGames team
With WWE Survivor Series 2024 around the corner, the focus will be on the WarGames match. Rhea Ripley named her picks for her WarGames team.
Rhea Ripley has grown to be one of the most dominant women in WWE. She was unstoppable as Women's World Champion and held the title until she was forced to relinquish it due to injury. Despite the issues she's had with The Judgment Day, and especially Liv Morgan, The Eradicator is still a fierce force in the ring.
Although outnumbered by her former stablemates, Ripley and Damian Priest have managed to hold their own and have even found an ally in Jey Uso. During a recent interview on Casual Conversations with The Classic, Rhea Ripley mentioned she would pick Bianca Belair, Jade Cargill, IYO SKY, and Kairi Sane to be on her team if she was ever made WarGames captain.
"It'd be me, I want to say it would probably be Bianca [Belair], Jade [Cargill], get the team, the tag champs," said Rhea. "Who else would I pick? I feel like I would — it's hard because they don't get along, I would have said IYO [Sky] and Kairi [Sane] because IYO's been in a few and like ... well she's been in a lot and she's won a lot of WarGames as well, and then Kairi's just ... she doesn't ever give up. She smashed her face on the announce table and just continued to go." [H/T Wrestling Inc.]
Rhea Ripley reveals what made her join The Judgment Day
For the past couple of years, Rhea Ripley and Damian Priest dominated Monday Night RAW as part of The Judgment Day. Rhea and Damian were the original members of the group along with Edge before they added Finn Balor. Over the years, the faction has added new members and removed the founders.
During the same interview, Rhea revealed that knowing Damian Priest was going to be part of The Judgment Day made it an easy decision for her to join the group.
"I started talking to him and we found out that we had so much in common. We loved the same sort of music, the same sort of style, I don't know, we just bonded over a whole bunch of stuff and he's a goofy dude. As much as he doesn't like to say it, he's a goofy dude and I'm pretty goofy too. We're just two goofballs together (...) When Edge came to me talking about The Judgment Day, knowing that Priest was in, it was pretty much like a solid choice for me. I was like okay, I'm down 100%," said Rhea Ripley.
Now that The Nightmare is on her own again, it will be interesting to see if she can reach the same heights she did before.
