The recent episode of Monday Night RAW saw Rhea Ripley stepping down from her Women’s World Championship due to injury, leaving the title vacant.
With WWE gearing up to crown a new Women’s World Champion, all eyes are on Liv Morgan, who seems to be a leading contender for the coveted title. Morgan reignited her rivalry with Ripley on the post-WrestleMania XL RAW, hinting at a potential championship opportunity.
However, WWE personality Cathy Kelley had a playful take on the situation, suggesting an unexpected contender for the vacant title.
Taking to Twitter, Kelley humorously proposed The Rock as a contender for the Women’s World Championship, adding a light-hearted twist to the discussion.
Meanwhile, during the Hall of Fame ceremony, Muhammad Ali’s wife, Lonnie, presented The Rock with the People’s Championship, setting the stage for potential future storylines.
The fallout episode of RAW witnessed The Rock crossing paths with Cody Rhodes, sparking speculation about his future endeavors upon his return from hiatus, including a possible pursuit of Rhodes’ Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.
Veteran wrestling journalist Bill Apter weighed in on Ripley’s injury, foreseeing a beneficial turn for Liv Morgan’s character. Apter suggested that Morgan’s transition into a formidable heel could culminate in her securing the vacant Women’s World Championship.
Emphasizing the significance of Ripley’s undefeated stature, Apter envisioned Morgan’s rise as an essential storyline element, adding depth to the women’s division.
As WWE confirms the imminent crowning of a new Women’s World Champion on the next episode of Monday Night RAW, anticipation mounts for the unfolding drama.
With Ripley poised for a return post-injury, fans can expect a riveting showdown between the new champion and the former titleholder in the future storyline arcs.
