Rhea Ripley Feels “Good To Be on Top” and Claims Women’s World Title Belongs to Her Shoulder Only

The women’s division of WWE at this moment is stronger than ever and one of the biggest attractions of it is the present Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley. She won her first World title at WrestleMania 39 by defeating Charlotte Flair. She had to vacate the title after more than a year in 2024 due to an unwanted injury.

When she returned to the promotion, Liv Morgan already captured the Women’s World title and it took her a long time to finally regain it. At Netflix RAW Premiere, Ripley defeated Morgan to capture the title and also end this long running feud. With this victory, she became a two times Women’s World Champion.

The Australian professional wrestler is indeed one of the best attractions of WWE right now, and the promotion did an amazing job of building her as a top star. Recently, she spoke on a Digital Exclusive of WWE where she said that she always loved being on top. She also said that the Women’s World title only belonged to her shoulder;

“Yes, it does,” said Ripley. “It’s actually giving me flashbacks of Australia, of Elimination Chamber. Giving me good old flashbacks of 2024, 2023, before everything else happened.”

“It’s always good to be on top, right? [Laughs] It feels fantastic. I’ve missed this championship, I’ve missed this Women’s World Championship. I was the first-ever Women’s World Champion, and I just feel like it belongs on my shoulder. It belongs in my bag, it belongs with me 24/7, so it’s real nice to be reunited.”

“I’ve had a lot of friends backstab me before, I’ve had a lot of family members backstab me before. At the end of the day, everyone wants that WrestleMania golden ticket, and I don’t blame them. It’s a massive opportunity, it’s what everyone works for. I have a target on my back, and I’m not gonna hide from that fact.

“So whoever it is that I stand across from at WrestleMania 41, because I guarantee I’m walking in Women’s World Champion. Whoever stands across the ring from me, they’re gonna have to be ready for ‘Mami’ because at the end of the day, ‘Mami’ is always on top.” Concluded the Women’s World Champion.
