Rhea Ripley pulls off shock twist at WWE Survivor Series; major injury update

WWE Survivor Series is expected to have many surprises and several storyline advancements. However, a particular move from Rhea Ripley seemed to provide an update regarding her injury.

The Eradicator had reportedly suffered an orbital injury after a headbutt spot. This led to her being written off TV soon after, and she was forced to miss Crown Jewel PLE. When she returned to action in mid-November, she was seen sporting a protective face mask, indicating that her injury had yet to undergo full recovery.

During the WarGames match at Survivor Series, however, Ripley removed her heavily designed face mask when facing Liv Morgan. This, apart from looking exceptionally intimidating, also seemingly indicated that Ripley had recovered from her injury and was cleared to wrestle without the protective gear.

The Eradicator certainly seemed to be back to her full strength as she battled fiercely inside the cage. Her rivalry with Liv Morgan led to some exceptionally intense spots. While the WWE match itself was a series of back-and-forths, Ripley was able to sneak in an opportunity to take down Liv and pin her, earning the win for her team.

As of now, it remains to be seen what the former Judgment Day member plans to do next in WWE.
