One thing that everyone’s been complaining about Rhea Ripley and her title reign is that there’s no credible challenger. No superstar has risen up to the position that they would be a threat to Ripley’s dominant winning streak. But that complaint is set to perish as Ripley’s next opponent is someone that even Ronda Rousey couldn’t stop.

This new opponent will face Ripley at Payback and fans are cheering to see a battle of the behemoths as these two women look to set their dominance in the ring. Will this be the end of the line for Ripley, finally meeting her match in the ring?

This threat is none other than the previously injured Raquel Rodriguez. The former tag team champion saw her tag partner get injured because of Ripley. So, at Payback, Raquel is getting her revenge and she might just win the World Women’s Championship as well.

This is the first time we have seen Ripley get manhandled by anyone in WWE.

With Rodriguez cleared medically now, there’s only a battle of the brawlers left at Payback.

Both these women have already shown how brutal they can be during their matches in NXT, and Payback will be another stage for these two to throw it down.

This fan just went wild with his fantasy booking.

These fan reactions go to show that fans have been clamoring for an equal footing for Ripley and they will finally get it. For months, fans have been waiting to see if any woman will be enough to take down Ripley. Even veteran Natalya wasn’t able to put up a decent fight against Ripley’s might. Over the weeks though, Ripley butted heads with many women but Rodriguez is the only one that even the fans are behind.
