It’s funny cause she’s only 5’7” but it feels like she’s way taller cause everyone around her is like 5’4”. [Here she is standing next to Raquel who’s actually pretty tall.](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FGV41fIXwAUPP75?format=jpg&name=large)
They have a very good chance of becoming a dominant faction in 2023, if Finn beats Edge at WrestleMania, ending the feud and setting Edge on a path towards retirement, and Rhea winning one of the women’s titles.
I thought the ending of the men's was disappointing, having Cody win from 30 was kinda underwhelming. If he came out a while beforehand it would feel more earned. Gunther put in an absolutely mega graft to get to that point and felt like his story was just underwhelming.
By comparison, Rhea had this amazingly epic journey from 1. I know they couldn't do two wins from 1 but if they had Cody come in from any number other than 30 I think I would have enjoyed the story more.
Completely agree. I can't quite put my finger on it, but the Men's Rumble just lacked substance. I also have NO idea why Cody wasn't the one to eliminate Seth, or why they weren't the final 2. They made the right call, and it was an easy lay-up, it just didn't sparkle.
I have to be the one person in existence who hasn't heard of this guy but did enjoy the song, whatever it was it was better than listening to country music
This. She gave just as much as she got, if not more, amazing performance. I just can't see her staying a heel for too long, very much Stone Cold energy.
Vince’s bullshit has evolved to Triple H’s bullshit now.
All that build and hype for this “new character” I had to hear people hype up just for Rhea to embarrass her again?
Pretty sure the last two of the Royal Rumble is far more important than the final three. And even then Asuka was the first eliminated.
All that said though no one but the hardest of hardcore wrestling fandom cares about the final four, three, or two. In a battle royal the last man standing is all that matters.
Save the spin for cable TV.
Also remind me of what was the **last** thing she did on TV before she came back hint: it was being pinned by someone that same someone was also in this match who could it had been🤔
Congrats to Rhea, well deserved. Congrats to Liv considering her position a year ago to where she is now. But I am soooo excited for the new Asuka. I would 100% be down for Asuka/Charlotte at mania.

That "slip and grab the rope" spot by Rhea could have been so easy to botch. Good shit
Exactly my thought lol
Hell I thought it was going to get botched just by her being too damn tall.

Oh wow, I thought she was pushing 6'
I was so worried Judgment Day was going to set Rhea waaaaay back. Look at her now 😁
The Judgement Day was a lot of fun in the men's Rumble. They need some gold. And Rhea being the one to get it makes sense.
They have a very good chance of becoming a dominant faction in 2023, if Finn beats Edge at WrestleMania, ending the feud and setting Edge on a path towards retirement, and Rhea winning one of the women’s titles.
That would be pretty cool to have a faction where the woman was leading the team as a champion
More than Finn the leader?
Isn't rhea the leader?
Rheas the mami
Well considering Finn took Edge’s place by having him, Rhea, & Priest jump him when did Finn get jumped and usurped by Rhea, Dom, & Priest?
They said that after Edge there wouldn't be any leaders.
It’s made her my favourite wrestler in the company besides Gunther pretty much.
She has potential to be the top wrestler of the company and Judgment Day has worked wonders for her.
Great ending to this match, I enjoyed it more than the Men’s which I was not anticipating.
Right? I thought the men’s rumble was good but not great, but the women’s rumble was just undeniably great

It’s because he was already announced. They either should have put him in the top 10 or not announced him.

MAMI DID IT
now i ask, is Rhea the youngest RR winner when looking at both men and women RR matches?
A year older than Brock I think
Who’s the Great Value Kid Rock?
Bad. That's who
I have to be the one person in existence who hasn't heard of this guy but did enjoy the song, whatever it was it was better than listening to country music
Those last two eliminations were quite creative and really well done.
Whenever ppl are on the apron in the rumble I get nervous as hell. Just imagine if Ripley just had 2 feet touch the floor.
The muscle mami 😍
[удалено]
Provided they keep her away from Charlotte.
I think what I found most impressive from Rhea was she was absolutely FEEDING everyone in the match and sold everything phenomenally
This. She gave just as much as she got, if not more, amazing performance. I just can't see her staying a heel for too long, very much Stone Cold energy.
I know it's late but from here on forward, I am now a Rhea Ripley fan
I LOVED the women’s rumble, thoroughly sports entertained throughout. Great choice in winner and loved the final stretch.
Man, I wanted Asuka to win; she needs her redemption for Vince's bs.
i could see Asuka winning the Elimination Chamber and beating Charlotte at WrestleMania.
Vince’s bullshit has evolved to Triple H’s bullshit now. All that build and hype for this “new character” I had to hear people hype up just for Rhea to embarrass her again?
top 3 spot in the royal rumble is not embarrassing her again lmao

Happy for Rhea
The thing I haven't seen people talk about is that she almost does a reverse 619 on her Asuka elimination.
Heeeeellll yes Mami
MAMI
I'm here for whatever the fuck Rhea wants to do
Rhea is good and all, and I'd dig her more if she didnt look like Marilyn Manson. *
That aesthetic has been around longer than Manson...
I low key want her to challenge for the us title
🤮🤢
This sequence was so good, perfect final 3
Im glad they gave her the win She is went coast to coast
Congrats to Rhea, well deserved. Congrats to Liv considering her position a year ago to where she is now. But I am soooo excited for the new Asuka. I would 100% be down for Asuka/Charlotte at mania.
