At WWE Payback, Raquel Rodriguez will seek to not only dethrone Rhea Ripley as the Women’s World Champion, but to enact retribution of her own.
“The Nightmare” Rhea Ripley has taken the Raw Women’s division by storm, maiming any opponent that has stood in her way. Former WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez stepped up to The Judgment Day member, but both wound up spending time on the injury shelf.
After Ripley took out Morgan a few weeks ago in horrific fashion, Rodriguez had to bide her time to get back at The Nightmare.. After multiple sneak attacks on the champion, Rodriguez was finally cleared on the August 21 episode of Raw, where she announced that she would be facing Ripley at WWE Payback.
Ripley and Rodriguez battled furiously whilst both were in NXT, with the two trading victories. Rodriguez was able to outlast Ripley in a brutal Last Woman Standing Match at NXT New Year’s Evil 2021.
Both have grown as competitors since then, with Ripley becoming an almost unstoppable force.
Will Rodriguez be able to usurp The Nightmare as the Women’s World Champion? Don’t miss WWE Payback on Saturday, Sept. 2, at 8 ET/5 PT, streaming LIVE on Peacock in the United States and on WWE Network everywhere else.
