Rhea Ripley bids farewell following recent WWE announcement

0 1 minute read

Rhea Ripley, the Australian WWE star, recently made a visit back to her home country alongside fellow Aussie wrestler Grayson Waller. This visit was prompted by the announcement that WWE Crown Jewel would be held in Perth on October 11, 2025, a departure from its traditional location in the Middle East. This change was due to Saudi Arabia hosting a historic Royal Rumble next year.

After a brief visit, Ripley is now heading back to the United States for WWE RAW, where she is currently embroiled in a feud with Stephanie Vaquer and Giulia. While she is eyeing a potential match against IYO SKY in the coming weeks, her immediate focus is on a possible tag team match at Backlash this weekend.

Despite WrestleMania being just two weeks ago, WWE is already gearing up for their next event in St. Louis, with some major matches already announced. Looking ahead, there are several upcoming events for WWE leading up to SummerSlam, including Money in the Bank, Worlds Collide, and potentially Night of Champions in June.

SummerSlam itself is set to make history as the first two-night event on August 2 and 3. Following this, there will be a European Tour with Clash in Paris at the end of the month, adding to Ripley’s already busy schedule.

As Ripley juggles her wrestling commitments and travels, she looks forward to returning to Australia in October for Crown Jewel and once again performing in front of her home crowd. With her sights set on future opportunities and championships, Ripley remains a prominent figure in the WWE women’s division.
