Rhea Ripley, the WWE Superstar, has hit the headlines once again on social media after her brutal Street Fight at Night of Champions. Weeks before her debut Monday Night RAW appearance, the current Women's World champion made it clear with a strong two-word recommendation, which was, champion mindset.

It was posted along with a set of photos of backstage of the Riyadh event, after Ripley engaged in a high-intensity combat with Raquel Rodriguez in a Riyadh Boulevard Street Fight. Massive battle, carried out in Saudi Arabia, involved steel chairs, kendo sticks and nonstop action. This back-and-forth match challenged the flares and resilience of both the Superstars, only at the end of the back-and-forth, Ripley emerged a victor having delivered a devastating Avalanche Riptide through a table.

Rhea Ripley Talks Pain After Brutal Match

During a post-match interview with Byron Saxton, Ripley said that she incurred some visible bruises, particularly when Rodriguez hit her with several kendo stick hits to the midsection. The Australian powerhouse tried to diminish the consequences of the damage, focusing on how she wants to go through her pain. Quite painful, she said, but that is what being a champion is all about.

Tonight, with the Monday Night RAW looming, Ripley cryptically posted a message on Instagram, Champion mindset fire. Fans, as well as insiders, buzzed about the topic. The post also acts as a statement of her mental resilience besides sending an indirect message to the RAW locker room stating that Mami is not going to be soft anytime soon.

The further prevalence and fierce nature of Ripley have maintained her as one of the commanding forces of WWE. With the world waiting to see what she will do next, it seems certain that the champion mindset that Rhea Ripley has talked about is not a catchphrase: rather, it is the lifestyle she leads.
