Rhea Ripley, aka Demi Bennett, is an Australian professional wrestler who is currently signed with the WWE. She joined WWE when she was 20 years old in the 2017-2018 Mae Young Classic. However, just after the first round, we saw a notable character change, as she returned for the 2018 tournament with a shaved head and black gear. She was then moved to the NXT UK Women’s division, where she became the first-ever NXT UK Women’s Champion by defeating Toni Storm.

Rhea quickly became one of the top NXT stars and led the first-ever women’s WarGames match. She also dethroned Shayna Baszler in December 2019 to win the NXT Women’s Championship; however, after winning the title, she went on to challenge Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania 36, where she ultimately lost the title. This loss became one of the lowest points in her career, as everybody thought that Rhea was going to be on the main roster, but after this loss, she was sent back to NXT for a year of rebuilding.

Rhea was officially called up to the main roster in 2021, where she quickly established herself and defeated Asuka at WrestleMania 37 for the Raw Women’s Champion. She was then placed in a mid-card tag team with Nikki A.S.H.; however, Rhea then joined the new faction of Edge and Damian Priest. This faction became one of the highest points in her career, as during this run, she adopted her iconic “Mami” persona, which, to this day, is still one of the most famous characters in the entire WWE. She also won the 2023 Royal Rumble, where she lasted over an hour from the number 1 position.

One of the biggest lows of her career happened just when she was at her peak. During a backstage segment, Rhea was injured by Liv Morgan, which forced her to relinquish her championship after a 380-day reign. As of 2025, she is in the tag team division with her partner, Iyo Sky. Their tag team is called “RHIYO”, and after months of being involved in the feud with the Kabuki Warriors, they defeated them on January 5, 2026, to become the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions.

List of Rhea Ripley’s World Championship Wins

Rhea Ripley has won the Women’s World Championship three times in her WWE career so far. She won her first World Championship after she was called up to the main roster. She made her debut and quickly challenged Asuka for her World Championship at WrestleMania. Rhea defeated Asuka at WrestleMania 37 to become the new Raw Women’s Champion. This win also made her the only female wrestler who have won the NXT UK, NXT, and a main roster world title.

She won her second Women’s World Championship by challenging Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania 39. After Rhea lost her NXT Women’s Championship against Flair at WrestleMania 36, she was stuck in NXT for more than a year. However, after that, she won the 2023 Royal Rumble from the number spot, and after winning the match, Rhea chose to face Flair at WrestleMania 39. 

This match is highly regarded as one of the greatest women’s matches in WWE history and was also voted as the 2023 Match of the Year. In this match, Rhea hit a Riptide from the second rope to finally beat Charlotte Flair and became the new WWE Women’s World Champion.

Her most recent World Championship win happened at the premiere episode of Monday Night Raw on Netflix, where she faced Liv Morgan for the Women’s World Championship. This match main-evented the first-ever WWE broadcast on Netflix, where Rhea defeated Liv Morgan to win the Women’s World Championship.
