On the recent episode of WWE RAW, the end of the show featured the unexpected return of Rhea Ripley, who confronted Liv Morgan and Dominik Mysterio after their victory over Rey Mysterio and Zelina Vega.
According to reports from Pwinsider, Ripley’s comeback was kept under tight wraps throughout the day, even from those who usually are privy to such information. Efforts were made to keep her hidden backstage and she was only ushered to the gorilla position just moments prior to her on-screen appearance.
It has been reported that the WWE took extra steps to maintain secrecy around Ripley’s return; they even flew her into Ottawa, Canada on the company’s private jet. This strategy was employed to avoid any fan sightings at the airport that may have tipped off her return. This tactic mirrors the recent handling of CM Punk’s surprise appearance at the WWE Money in the Bank 2024 event.
