As the Women’s World Champion, Rhea has been captivating fans with her on-screen partnership with Dominik Mysterio, while also publicly acknowledging her real-life relationship with fellow wrestler Buddy Matthews.
Recently, Rhea made headlines when she appeared to give a provocative answer, in character, to a fan question about her and Dominik. The video went viral, with fans offering lighthearted and playful comments. However, some individuals took it as an opportunity to mock Buddy.
Rhea has been vocal in defending her partner before, and she continued to do so with a tweet addressing those who crossed the line.
She wrote, ‘Things aren’t “real” within this industry until you all wanna hide bullying as “funny comments”. Just saying, y’all aren’t funny.’
Many fans have rallied behind Rhea, showing their support and calling out the disrespectful behavior.
Unfortunately, there are some fans who struggle to separate Rhea and Dominik’s on-screen relationship from their real lives, leading to unwarranted comments towards Buddy.
Rhea has always handled these situations with grace and humor. In response to a fan’s misspelled sign taunting Buddy, she cleverly pointed out the spelling mistake instead of engaging in negativity.
Rhea has expressed gratitude for having someone like Buddy in her life who understands the challenges and triumphs of a wrestling career. Their relationship provides much-needed support for both stars.
