— FADE (@FadeAwayMedia) August 19, 2024The Nightmare found solace in her fanbase amidst her ongoing heated rivalry with Liv Morgan. The latter has set out to destroy Rhea Ripley since her return at the Royal Rumble. After winning the title she vacated, Morgan also broke apart The Judgment Day and took Dominik Mysterio away from her Mami. Needless to say, the 27-year-old will be looking to exact her revenge in the coming months.
Rhea Ripley lambasted Liv Morgan fans for their hypocrisy
The rivalry between Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan has garnered a lot of attention on social media. Fans on both sides have seemingly taken the feud to extreme levels, throwing shots at each other. Following the conclusion of last week’s SmackDown, Ripley brutally mocked a fan after the latter questioned why Roman Reigns was made to look weak before The Terror Twins.
This discourse was brought up at the Fanatics Fest as The Eradicator continued her onslaught. Ripley called out the Morgan “stains” for their hypocritical behavior toward Dominik Mysterio. Moreover, she responded to the fans who asked her to apologize for her previous actions.
The former Women’s World Champion called for the fans to ask for an apology from Reigns instead, who’s been welcomed with open arms despite his four-year villainous run. Regardless, this will hopefully culminate at Bash in Berlin as Ripley and Morgan square off in a mixed tag team match.
