Rhea Ripley Set To Make Official WWE Raw Debut This Monday

Rhea Ripley is set to make her official main roster debut on this week's episode of Monday Night Raw.

'The Nightmare' has consistently been advertised as "coming soon" on the red show since the Royal Rumble, but now appears to be on the cusp of her first appearance as a legit member of the brand's roster.

WWE confirmed this in a press release, saying that the star could be looking to put the red brand on notice from the get-go:

Rhea Ripley to make Monday Night Raw debutThis is her brutality, and it has a new home on Monday Night Raw.Over the last several weeks, the WWE Universe and the Raw Women’s Division have been warned, and this Monday, “The Nightmare” Rhea Ripley will finally arrive on Raw.Will Ripley be looking to put the red brand on notice right off the bat?Find out this Monday on Raw live at 8/7 C on USA Network!

With WrestleMania 37 just three weeks away, WWE are yet to set a Raw Women's Championship match in stone for the two-night extravaganza. Could Ripley find herself battling for the brand's top Women's belt against current title-holder Asuka? Or will she be too focused on avenging her loss at last year's event to Charlotte Flair to worry about gold?

Though her Road to WrestleMania is anything but clear, as of writing, 'The Nightmare' will no doubt give the Raw Women's division the shot in arm it's in desperate need of. Perhaps we'll even see her rekindle her NXT rivalry with Shayna Baszler in the not too distant future.

For now, all eyes will be on Monday night and the initial impact the former NXT Women's Champion will look to make on night one.
