After a clip showing the current Women's World Champion jokingly flirting with Samantha Irvin at a WWE event went viral, Ripley playfully told Kelley that the RAW ring announcer was now her new girlfriend. The new SmackDown backstage interviewer has since urged The Eradicator to return to her. Meanwhile, she added "Rhea's ex" to her Twitter bio.
Commenting on Kelley's latest post on Twitter, a fan suggested an idea for Kelley to make Ripley jealous.
"You know what would be funny? If Cathy tried to make Rhea jealous and just started hanging out with Thea Hail. Get it. Rhea and Thea. Sorry, I had to. Lol," the fan wrote.
Kelley responded to the fan's comment. The WWE personality stated that she is "open to any and all ideas."
"Open to any and all ideas at this point."
