#5. Reunite with Damian Priest

Rhea Ripley teamed up with Damian Priest, known as the Terror Twins, a few months ago, and fans loved seeing both stars together. Both former World Champions proved to be a dynamic duo and could spark a revolution in the mixed tag team division if given the right opportunities at the right time.

A potential reunion like this could give WWE the chance to showcase a variety of new storylines and matches, which could further elevate the status of the company’s product.

#4. Finally beat IYO SKY

Rhea Ripley has achieved nearly everything there is to win and has earned her place among some of the greatest women to step inside the squared circle. However, one thing she has never done is defeat former Women’s World Champion IYO SKY.

Considering WWE’s recent storyline where Ripley and SKY are working together to take down The Kabuki Warriors, it is quite possible that a rivalry between the two women could kick off, and considering their past and their positions, Ripley could finally beat SKY.

#3. Move over to SmackDown

One of the main reasons Rhea Ripley hasn't been getting many opportunities is that she's taken down nearly every top star of the brand. As 2026 approaches, WWE might move Ripley to the blue brand.

This could lead to some of the most exciting new storylines, which is exactly what Mami needs to get herself back on top of the women’s roster.

#2. Win the Women’s World Championship

Rhea Ripley is a former multiple-time Women’s World Champion and hasn't held the top title since WrestleMania season. Fans have been waiting to see Ripley return to the title scene, but the company is seemingly trying to give opportunities to other stars as well.

However, after months without the gold, WWE could put the world title back on Mami, letting her get back her aura as well as her position as the leader of RAW’s women’s division.

#1. Rhea Ripley could turn heel and get back with Dominik Mysterio

The Eradicator is in need of a big heel turn, and there couldn’t be a better opportunity than this. The company could use this and mark the massive turn in the next few weeks, to finally add something new to her story.

Furthermore, a potential heel turn could mend fences with former WWE on-screen boyfriend Dominik Mysterio as well, giving the latter an opportunity to run all of it back.

Fans will have to wait and see what WWE has planned for The Eradicator next.
