Rhea Ripley might be the most menacing opponent. But, when having her dance inside the squared circle, she’s a total goofball to her loved ones. The transition from the chilling WWE workhorse gimmick to the sweetest girlfriend one could ever have is a real treat to the senses.

In her recent Instagram story, The Eradicator once again did justice to that claim by displaying an adorable gesture for her real-life boyfriend, AEW star Buddy Matthews.

WWE Universe has been buzzing with the minute developments on the magnetic synergy of Rhea Ripley and Dominik Mysterio for long now. The on-screen romance storyline transcended typical wrestling narratives, taking it to another height into a rare synthesis of passion, commitment, and talent. That said, to give fans a break from the scripted love story, Mami came up with the original one in a grand engagement announcement last year. Notably, the duo started dating in 2022 and kept it no secret.

The social media storylines immediately jumped on making intertwining narratives between Ripley, Mysterio, and Matthews based on their consistent flirtatious exchanges and a pinch of jealousy between the two men. But amidst this showcased drama, Ripley didn’t miss out on the genuine romance with his one and only ‘Papi’.

We have seen both of them come up with various cute posts to express love for each other. This time, Ripley set the bar high posting a startling photo frame of her with the caption, ”Put it on @snm_Buddy desk to remind him who loves him most.”

The WWE Women’s World Champion’s antics to woo her beau from time to time is, however, a part of her expertise in finely drawing a line of balance between her personal and professional life.
