Rhea Ripley is you’re 2023 women’s Royal Rumble winner.
Starting the match at No. 1 with Liv Morgan, the two went the distance before MAMI eliminated Morgan who was inadvertently misted by Asuka to secure the win and her spot in the main event at WrestleMania.
Aside from the incredible ending, the match itself was full of surprise returns that included Michelle McCool entering from the front row, Asuka debuting what seemed to be her past KANA gimmick, Nia Jax coming in at No. 30, Chelsea Green setting a record for the quickest elimination, and Piper Niven dropping the ridiculous Doudrop name.
In the end, although predictable, the WWE got this one right as Ripley will provide an amazing program no matter who she’s up against whether that be Bianca Belair, Charlotte Flair, or whoever else.
