Piper Niven would love to run it back with Rhea Ripley.
The current Women’s World Champion and former Women’s Tag Team Champion have had their fair share of matches together back in NXT UK. Now, WWE is heading to Scotland for the Clash at the Castle event in June. A perfect place for the Scottish-born Niven and Ripley to renew an old rivalry.
“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 recently returned from a hand injury and still is with her tag team partner Chelsea Green. They lost against Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair on Friday’s SmackDown. They will be facing Katana Chance and Kayden Carter on the April 15 Raw.
