It looks like Rhea Ripley’s injury is more serious than we thought.
Under a recent Instagram post, Ripley responded to a fan who said that she didn’t look like someone who was injured. Ripley was not at Raw on Monday and she was pulled out of the Raw Women’s Title match with Bianca Belair because she is not medically cleared.
WWE has not said exactly what happened to her but we do know that she hasn’t wrestled since the 6/6 episode of Raw and the spot seen in the clip below is believed to be when she was hurt. If you look closely, Ripley’s knee smashes into her own head after taking a DDT from Liv Morgan.
Ripley’s response to the fans states that she’s dealing with the following issues “brain/teeth. Can’t see a brain injury. Stop being incompetent and reaching at nothing.” Her description of her injury sounds like she has a concussion.
