Rhea Ripley sent her heartfelt message to her husband ahead of tonight's edition of WWE RAW. The Eradicator challenged IYO SKY for the Women's World Championship in the main event of Evolution 2025 last night.
Ripley is married to AEW star Buddy Matthews, formerly known as Buddy Murphy in WWE, and he shared a tribute to his wife earlier today. Matthews shared a video of Ripley hitting IYO SKY with a knee strike at Evolution and noted that it was similar to his.
Rhea Ripley responded to Buddy Matthew's post, noting that she had learned the move from the best.
"Learnt from the best 😘," she wrote.![Ripley reacts to her husband's post on Instagram.
