Ripley, one of WWE’s most dominant female superstars, hadn’t competed in a singles match on RAW since January 1, 2024. Her return marked a pivotal moment for her career and reignited excitement among the WWE Universe. After a challenging year marked by injuries, Ripley’s comeback was a highlight of the night.

This match was more than just a comeback for Ripley; it was a statement that she’s ready to reclaim her spot at the top of the women’s division.

Chaos and Interference

The Anything Goes stipulation allowed for complete mayhem. Liv Morgan made her presence felt during the match, attacking Ripley in an attempt to gain an advantage for Rodriguez. However, the interference backfired when IYO SKY intervened, taking Morgan out of the equation.

Ripley capitalized on the chaos, delivering a devastating Riptide through a table to secure the victory over Rodriguez. The brutal finish cemented Ripley’s successful return to singles competition and reminded fans of her power and skill.
