Piper Niven: It’s Time To Run It Back With Rhea Ripley

Piper Niven wants to run it back with Rhea Ripley. 

Piper Niven and Rhea Ripley are no strangers to each other, having competed against each other multiple times in NXT UK. The two women are in different places in WWE right now with Ripley reigning as WWE Women’s World Champion and Niven just returning after a hand injury. 

If they were going to revisit their rivalry, WWE Clash at the Castle in Scotland would be the place to do it for Niven. 

“Why not? I don’t know if you know me this, but Rhea and myself had some absolute bangers back in the day. I think it’s time to run it back, but this announcement was very, very satisfying for me because the people of Scotland have deserved this for such a long time. Without the British boom, it’s my belief that there probably wouldn’t have been an NXT UK, and Scotland was a massive part of that boom. Scotland was a huge part of that boom. Most of the people that I’ve met by chance here this week are Scottish. There’s such a huge fanbase in Scotland, and they deserve this. So I’m very happy. I hope that I’m there for them in that ring, and I hope they’ll be cheering for me,” she told Gorilla Position. 

Niven returned to action on Friday’s WWE SmackDown, teaming with Chelsea Green in a loss to Jade Cargill & Bianca Belair. 

Ripley is currently targeted by Liv Morgan on WWE Raw.
