RHEA RIPLEY prowled, scowled and howled in a skin-tight outfit – to leave fans wowed.
The Eradicator almost went through nine lives in her cat-suit like costume as the WWE Night of Champions turned into a rollercoaster in Riyadh for the Aussie.

The two-time Women’s World champion was also keen to show off her Rhea view too – turning her back on the camera and peering over her shoulder with a chilling smile.
Then came the SCOWLING – as she showed her aggression in a brutal street-fight with Raquel Rodriguez.
And the hint of HOWLING came from an injury during the contest – which Ripley later revealed was bruised ribs.
But it was her swaggering entrance in a curvy outfit that most impressed observers.
Fans’ jaws appeared to drop, judging from their social media posts.
“This is wild,” said one”. “Yesssss loooooooorrrdddddd,” raved another.
Other short and sweet verdicts included: “Oh my God Rhea”… “RHEA. BLOODY. RIPLEY”… and “RHEA “BOOTY” RIPLEY” .

One view argued: “That’s such a cool outfit specially considering the restrictions.”
Meanwhile, some fans even came close to inventing new words to express their approval.
“Wohooooo” and “Omgoodnes” were amongst such thesaurus-busting outbursts.
The RAW star went on to dazzle in the Saudi ring too.
And she eventually triumphed with a Riptide move off the top rope -while standing on a table.
Ripley did clutch her ribs afterwards – but reckoned the injury came from her opponent being hit by a kendo stick.
However, the Eradicator is confident she’ll shake off the problem soon.
And asked about her future plans, Ripley insisted she’s “just getting started.
Not bad for someone in just her 20s whose achievements already include holding one world title for a joint record of 380 days.
