Although Rhea Ripley has been absent from in-ring competition for several weeks, the WWE Women’s World Champion made a notable appearance at Fanatics Fest this week. WWE shared footage on social media showing Ripley serving as the special guest for a lookalike contest, where numerous fans paid tribute by dressing as the Australian superstar.
Ripley appeared visibly moved by the dedication and effort displayed by the participants, underscoring her enduring connection with the audience. The champion has been sidelined since sustaining an injury at WWE Clash at the Castle in Scotland nearly two months ago. Despite the extended hiatus, WWE has opted to keep the title on Ripley, though a definitive timeline for her return to active competition remains unannounced.
