Rhea Ripley is considered one of the most interesting names on the WWE roster. However, one storyline decision has apparently been the reason for her downfall, according to wrestling veteran Vince Russo.
Before her current run, The Eradicator was booked with Damian Priest as one half of the Terror Twins. Although they started off strong after splitting from The Judgment Day faction, their partnership was short-lived. Eventually, Damian and Rhea went their separate ways, disbanding what Vince Russo considers an interesting team.
Speaking about this on Writing with Russo, the WWE veteran lamented the booking that separated the two stars and said:
"They had something when Priest and Rhea were the Terror Twins. They had something there. And now, the minute they both went their separate ways, they went from here, and now we are back here (gestures downfall)."

The WWE veteran is not happy with Rhea Ripley's backstage behavior
While Vince Russo believes that Rhea Ripley is one of the best stars in the company right now, he is not pleased with how she posts content that undermines her on-screen character.
Speaking about a photo of Rhea Ripley after she was attacked by the poison mist on RAW, Russo stated on Writing with Russo:
"You talk about protecting a gimmick. And that's the thing with her, like, it's like every time I see a picture like that, I am like, why? Just don't take the picture! I don't understand what that does for you from a positive viewpoint. I just don't understand it!"
It remains to be seen what the promotion has in store for Rhea Ripley in WWE.
