WWE star Rhea Ripley and AEW star Buddy Matthews have officially tied the knot. Despite a challenging few months professionally, Ripley’s personal life has seen a joyous milestone.

Ripley has been a significant presence on WWE's Raw, gaining popularity through her role in The Judgment Day and her on-screen relationship with Dominik Mysterio. She successfully retained her Women’s World Championship against Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 40 but had to relinquish the title due to an injury sustained from an attack by Liv Morgan, a former tag team partner.

Taking advantage of her time away from the ring, Ripley and Matthews, who announced their engagement in August 2023, recently got married. Ripley shared the news on social media, posting a photo of the couple dressed in black with a simple caption celebrating their union.

WWE is already planning for Ripley's return at a major upcoming event, indicating her continued prominence in the wrestling world despite her current hiatus.
