Both wrestling stars took time off from their schedules for wedding
Despite their busy schedules, the two wrestling superstars took out time for the wedding, which left fans a little surprised. Ripley, who is currently out of action due to injury, has been absent from WWE. She last defended her Women’s World Championship against Becky Lynch at WrestleMania. However, later an injury on Raw forced her to vacate the title, which is now held by Liv Morgan. WWE is now creating an interesting storyline, with Morgan now behind Rhea’s on-screen romance with Dominik.

The couple will definitely make sure to spend their time well together during the break from wrestling. They have a lot of support from wrestling fans around the world and they are very happy with this big wrestling wedding.
