Rhea Ripley is not walking back on her words about Rey Mysterio but she still considers Dominik Mysterio to be the bigger enemy.
The Eradicator recently had an interview with Casual Conversations podcast. She discussed things such as her friendship with Damian Priest, her reaction to leaving Judgment Day, competing in WarGames and more.
When asked how she feels about Rey now after being betrayed by Dom herself, Ripley explained that she won’t go back on her words. She still believes that the young star needed to get out of his father’s shadow even if they’re not together anymore:
“I’m not gonna be immature like Dom and contradict everything I’ve done in the past and said in the past what he has been doing in every single interview. He has been playing me out to be this bad guy, this villain in his life—which I wasn’t. I cared for him, and I loved him.
So I’m not gonna do that about this situation either. I’m gonna stand on everything I said back then. I do think that Dom had to get out of Rey’s shadow. I do believe that. Rey was picking Edge over his own son—a man who literally speared Dom in the middle of the ring, looked at him, went ‘uh,’ and then ran after Finn Bálor. That man did not care about Rey Mysterio’s son.
So why is Rey picking Edge over Dom? So I’m not gonna contradict myself and say that I do think Rey was in the right. Because I do think Rey was in the wrong. But at the same time, I think that Dom has hurt me in a bigger way than Rey ever hurt me. So he’s more in my good books than Dom is right now.”
He Got Family Issues: Rhea Ripley
Dirty Dom turned on The Mami at SummerSlam and he aligned himself with Liv Morgan instead. One of the reasons Dominik has given for this turn is that Morgan helped him beat his dad in a match, something Rhea Ripley never did.
When asked if Dom has daddy issues, the former Women’s World Champion explained that Mysterio has family issues. She also fired back at him for saying that he didn’t come up with The Mami nickname:
“You can tell a man has daddy issues when he gets so excited about getting called Daddy. He got family issues let’s be honest cause now he’s saying that I made him call me Mami and he never liked calling me Mami. You got problems my dude because you came up with that by yourself. I didn’t make you do crap.”
Dominik Mysterio most recently faced off against Damian Priest in a one-on-one match on Monday’s Raw. While he lost the bout, the Judgment Day swarmed the ring immediately afterward, delivering a brutal beatdown on both the Terror Twins.
