Rhea Ripley isnt leaving anything to the imaginationand now shes showing exactly why she ended up in the hospital.

Ripley suffered a nasty cut that required stitchesand she showed it. Taking to her Instagram story on April 8, Ripley warned fans before posting the image, making it clear what they were about to see wasnt for everyone: What an eventful day. If you have a weak stomach or dont like injuries, dont look at my next story. She then followed that up by sharing a graphic photo showing the injury itself, along with the medical treatmentconfirming she needed stitches after the incident. She said, Nice little detour to the emergency room for me today. The injury traces back to the chaotic RAW segment where Ripley tried to help Iyo Sky after being blindsided by Jade Cargill and attacked alongside Michin and B-Fab. While Ripley attempted to step in, she was held back and forced to watch as Sky was beaten downbefore the situation escalated further. Initially, the hospital photo posted by Buddy Matthews had Ripley appearing in good spirits, even flipping the middle finger with a wasted sticker addedmaking it seem less serious at first glance. But Ripleys own update changes that completely. The graphic image confirms the damage was realand significant enough to require emergency treatment. Now, with WrestleMania 42 over a week away and tensions already high in the womens division, Ripleys condition becomes something to watch closelyespecially depending on how quickly she recovers from the cut.
