Rhea Ripley’s presence is sorely missed by her Judgment Day teammates every week. The faction’s members often drop her name in the promos that they deliver on screen on Monday Night Raw. On the 06/24 episode of the Red Brand show, we saw the heel stable in a segment in their clubhouse.

In the segment, Rhea Ripley and Jeff Hardy both were present on the screen. If you are wondering if Hardy is back at his old workplace, then the answer is ‘no’. However, he is back in the WWE 2k24 video game and was seen against Mami on the latest edition of Raw.

During one segment at the beginning of the episode, we saw Damian Priest entering the clubhouse as the rest of his boys were snacking and playing WWE 2k24 on the screen. While Dominik Mysterio was munching on the chicken nuggets that Liv Morgan sent for him and his friends, Carlito and JD McDonagh played the game as Finn Balor watched them play.

The segment then revolved around Priest telling Mysterio to break things off with Liv Morgan, whatever may be going on between the two. However, in the background Carlito and McDonagh engaged in a match between Rhea Ripley and Jeff Hardy. And eagle-eyed fans took note of the characters chosen for the game and expressed their reactions on social media.

WWE world catches interesting detail, spotting Rhea Ripley

Inter-gender matches became available in WWE 2k24. Since the previous entries in the series did not contain this feature, wrestlers and fans alike have enjoyed it to the fullest. Jeff Hardy recently made his way into the game. So the segment showcased two new things about the game.

Fans quickly noticed the hilarious detail in the background and posted about it on ‘X’.

This viewer noticed it and posted the same on their timeline, laughing about it in the process. While the match looks pretty intense, with Rhea Ripley destroying the former WWE star, the situation in itself is hilarious as we see inter-gender matches in the game series for the first time.

Another hilarious reaction from a viewer who claimed that the matchup was ‘wild’. When you look at it objectively, as a fan of the series who hasn’t witnessed this before, it is indeed interesting to see such a card go down. Because an intergender match is a rare sight to see in the game.

This fan would be happy to know that most of the WWE world has also noticed the background. Although we don’t know which Judgment Day member has picked which star, it is possible that McDonagh picked Rhea Ripley, as he is an older member of the heel stable and enjoys a more fruitful bond with the female star compared to Carlito.

At last, we have one more wrestling fan focusing on the TV in the background, pointing out that Rhea Ripley is facing a foe in the video game that nobody may have anticipated before. Jeff Hardy’s appearance in the latest WWE game seems to be more of a shocker for fans than the fact that he is wrestling against the former Women’s Champion.

Have you ever tried the inter-gender matches in the game yet? Who do you think would end up winning in the end between Rhea Ripley and Jeff Hardy?
