Rhea Ripley provides updates on injury recovery and personal life

WWE wrestler Rhea Ripley has provided updates regarding her recent absence from in-ring action. Ripley has been recovering from surgery to repair a torn meniscus in her right knee, an injury sustained during a match against Jade Cargill at Clash in Italy. During her recovery, she relinquished the WWE Women's Championship.

While away from the ring, Ripley announced on social media her excitement for the launch of the new Hellraiser video game. Additionally, she and partner Buddy Matthews introduced a new family member, a dog named Choppa, whom they recently adopted.

Fellow wrestler Iyo Sky commented on Ripley's injury during an appearance on The Ringer Wrestling Show, suggesting that Ripley may have been overworking herself due to a demanding global schedule that included main events and media appearances, such as during the Crown Jewel weekend in Australia. Sky expressed confidence that Ripley will return to the ring stronger.
