One of WWE’s most prominent superstars, Rhea Ripley, has successfully defended her Women’s World Championship title against the likes of Zelina Vega, Natalya, Raquel Rodriguez, Nia Jax, and Shayna Baszler. Her presence in the ring commands attention, but her negative persona is largely disliked by WWE fans.
The WWE universe has witnessed all sides of ‘The Nightmare.’ Since her ascent as a champion, she’s been unstoppable, but there are speculations about her supposed downfall in the biggest WWE event, WrestleMania 40.
Rhea Ripley achieves major WWE milestone
Rhea Ripley has set the bar quite high through her continuous record-breaking matches, defending the title she won by defeating Charlotte Flair in WrestleMania 39. Since then, ‘The Nightmare’ has been challenged numerous times, but every time she has prevailed. One of her most iconic match is when she defended her title in a Fatal Five-Way Match in Crown Jewel.

Rhea has been holding the WWE Women’s World Champion title for more than 250 days. The Judgment Day member started her WWE career in 2017 by competing in the first Mae Young Classic. Now, after six years, she holds an identity that is easily recognized by millions of WWE fans.
Even superstars like Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson is impressed with Rhea after the female superstar posted a video of her working out. Showing the hard work she puts behind the scene and that she is capable for her effort and dedication she puts for her profession.
WWE universe wants Rhea Ripley to lose her title
WWE fans have made it very clear that they want Ripley to lose her title. The 26-year-old has been dominant since her debut and fans seem to have enough of the Judgement Day supremacy, and now want someone else to take her place.
Rumors also include a likely championship match against ‘The Man’ Becky Lynch. Fans are going as far as sharing posts on social media about their favorite superstar dethroning Rhea as the new champion.

Rhea herself has shared in an interview with India Today about an opponent she wants to face. During WrestleMania 39, there were rumors on Becky Lynch vs Rhea Ripley facing each other. However, sadly the match never happened although there are chances that this match will happen in Philadelphia for WrestleMania 40.
“when you step in the ring with Mami, it’s a whole different sort of challenge. And if it were to be myself and Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 40, you know, I, I invite that challenge. Like you said, we went one on one in NXT. And it there was no no clear winner because it was A DQ because Shayna, Jessamyn and Marina just had to come down and ruin that for me when I was on the stride of my life,” said Ripley.
Although it is still uncertain whether Rhea will remain the champ or lose her title, one thing is sure: ‘The Nightmare’ will continue to entertain the WWE universe with her charisma, wits, and attitude.
