WWE Money in the Bank 2025 witnessed many ups and downs. The women's division was shaken up with Becky Lynch becoming the Women's Intercontinental Champion. Besides this, Naomi won the MITB briefcase and now has the chance to cash in on any women's champion she wants.
Meanwhile, Rhea Ripley is another name who was in the spotlight at MITB. The Eradicator was part of the Women's Money in the Bank Ladder Match. Despite all efforts, Mami failed to emerge as the winner, with Naomi picking up the coveted win.
After this loss, there is a possibility that Rhea Ripley could turn heel after almost 499 days. Ripley hasn't played a villainous role since late January 2024. Following this, the former Judgment Day member played a tweener character and later established herself as a babyface star.
The reason why there are chances of Ripley turning heel is due to her recent big losses. First, she was defeated for the Women's World Championship on RAW, then at WrestleMania 41, she suffered yet another loss to IYO SKY in the blockbuster Triple Threat Match for the title, also involving Bianca Belair. And more recently, she lost her chance to grab the MITB briefcase in the Women's Ladder Match.
Frustrated by these losses, The Eradicator may finally decide to turn heel again. This could be done when Ripley launches an attack on the Genius of the Sky. This would extend their rivalry, setting up a Women's World Title bout between them.
Ripley is a six-time champion in WWE and has held the NXT Women's and NXT UK Women's Titles during her time in the developmental brand. On the main roster, she has held the RAW Women's Championship once, the Women's World Title twice, and the Women's Tag Team Championship alongside Nikki Cross.
While there is a possibility of this above angle playing out, for now, it is just speculation. It remains to be seen what plans WWE has for Rhea Ripley and whether she will turn heel after her recent losses.
