The former member of The Judgment Day suffered a broken nose at WWE SuperShow Japan. She was competing in a Fatal Four Way Women's World Championship match against Stephanie Vaquer, IYO SKY, and Raquel Rodriguez. Ripley was absent from Monday Night RAW for several weeks due to the injury, and she has been wearing a mask ever since her return on November 10.

Speaking on the most recent edition of RAW Recap, Rhea Ripley disclosed that she would have to wear the mask at the upcoming premium live event, as she had last year, because her nose was still not fully healed. The 29-year-old added that she could not wait to reveal the mask she would be wearing at the show this Saturday.

"I will have to wear it during this WarGames match, and I will probably have it on the entire time unless someone takes it off forcefully. My nose is somewhat healed, but it’s not fully healed, so I will be wearing [the mask]. But I will also be doing it up, just like I did last year, so I can’t wait to show everyone exactly what my mask looks like," Ripley said. [H/T: WrestleZone]

In an X (fka Twitter) post after the show, wrestling veteran Matt Morgan congratulated the newly crowned champion. The 49-year-old suggested WWE book a dominant run for Cargill, similar to Goldberg's past run. He further opined that Rhea Ripley should feud with the SmackDown star, leading to a title match at WrestleMania 42.

"Let’s go!!! Huge congrats to my friend @Jade_Cargill for winning the women’s championship tonight at #SNME!! This girl has put in so much work to get here that It’s not even funny! Now? Wwe needs to make her go on a Goldberg type of DOMINATE RUN, and have Rhea chase her for the title come mania imho. So proud of you sis!💪💪," Morgan tweeted.

It remains to be seen whether Rhea Ripley and Jade Cargill will cross paths and wrestle a title match in the future.
