WWE Superstar Rhea Ripley has shocked the internet and left her fans divided over an extremely NSFW story that she posted on Instagram. The IG story may have disappeared over time, but screenshots of it are already making their rounds on other social media platforms like Twitter and Reddit.
In fact, the incident has sparked comments from WWE commentators on air while Rhea Ripley was making her way to the ring on an episode of Monday Night Raw. Let’s take a look at what Rhea Ripley’s Instagram Story was all about and how Twitter reacted to this controversy.
Exploring Rhea Ripley’s NSFW Instagram Story
Rhea Ripley is known for her bold persona on WWE, and the same applies to her dynamic on social media and her relationship with her fans. Her latest controversial IG story falls under the same range.
The 26-year-old Australian reposted an explicit image from an account named @mercedesmoneandrhea_ripley22. The original picture itself is just an image of Rhea Ripley in a phone but with seminal fluid sprayed all over it.
For the uninitiated, such acts are considered to be sexual tributes to women from their supposed admirers. The fact that Rhea Ripley has openly shared this on her Instagram Story possibly reflects that she welcomes such acts.
Furthermore, it reflects how online media has normalized it. Such tributes are becoming increasingly common on the darker side of the internet for female celebrities such as actresses, influencers, models and streamers.
Twitter reacts to Rhea Ripley’s Instagram Story
Rhea Ripley’s decision to repost the story has sparked an influx of reactions from her fans and WWE audiences worldwide. The most notable reaction came from WWE commentator Corey Graves during an episode of Raw, just as Rhea entered the ring.

Rhea Ripley’s recent social media antics
This is definitely not the first that the WWE Women’s World Champion has had a field day on social media with her fans. Just a few days ago, she posted a Father’s Day picture with her on-screen boyfriend, Dominik Mysterio.
Happy Papi’s Day
– Mami, Raymondo & Angelina 😘 pic.twitter.com/gBxXHDmuPk— RheaRipley_WWE (@RheaRipley_WWE) June 18, 2023
The bizarre part of the picture is that it featured two photoshopped babies in the couple’s arms, as she called them Raymondo and Angelina in the caption. She wished “Happy Papi’s Day” to Dominik as she called herself Mami, a label given by her fans.
In reality, there is no romantic relationship between Rhea Ripley and Dominik Mysterio, the son of WWE icon Rey Mysterio.
