The WWE world calls Rhea Ripley ‘Mami’ for a reason. While most of the time creative features the 26-year-old SmackDown star as a protector of the Dirty Dom, it’s not always the case. Ripley plays the responsibility of the bigger and stronger one in the group to safeguard almost all of his stablemates and this time it was the turn of Damian Priest.

Ripley, the eminent fixture of WWE’s women’s division, can really put any of his male counterparts to shame with her unbelievable physical and mental tenacity. It clearly oozed out during this week’s WWE live event in Ottawa, where she once again showed her prowesses.

Despite the swirling rumors of Damien Priest leaving Judgement Day in the long run, he’s still continuing his run as a crucial member of the faction. Mr. Money in The Bank 2023 might not be in a very healthy connection with Finn Balor, but it seems like Mysterio’s kayfabe girlfriend is the one he needs to survive in the fold.

Months ago, Ripley had a mammoth exhibition of power during WWE’s house show in Liverpool by seamlessly carrying the 249 lbs giant in her arms.

After receiving a blow from Seth Rollins, the Archery of the Infamy was in need of some support from his stablemates. While Dom Dom failed to come to his safe, Ripley took an alpha entry in her odd pair of sunglasses and straight away lifted Priest in her lap.

The same thing recurred in the mix once again after nearly two months at Ottawa with The Nightmare helping the 40-year-old to head backstage. In the video, Ripley can be seen rolling a tired Priest along the ramp creating a hilarious situation, while she is also carrying Priest’s MITB briefcase.

The clip gained huge traction and garnered some hilarious reactions over social media.

Fans think WWE needs to Ripley a raise
