Danhausen Reaches Out to Rhea Ripley After Judgment Day Chaos on WWE Raw

Danhausen Reaches Out to Rhea Ripley After Judgment Day Chaos on WWE Raw

The feud between Danhausen and the Judgment Day took another turn on the June 29 episode of WWE Raw, and it may have just earned the Very Nice, Very Evil one a very powerful ally.

The night’s drama centered on a briefcase containing what Judgment Day had been calling their “human monies” — $100,000 that the faction claimed Danhausen had stolen from them, reportedly in retaliation for the group trashing his lab and electrocuting JD McDonagh. The briefcase was positioned at ringside during McDonagh’s match against Chad Gable, which McDonagh won. When Dom Mysterio opened the briefcase to celebrate, the contents exploded in his face, allowing Danhausen to reclaim his Knicks jersey from the group’s possession — though the victory was short-lived, as Raquel Rodriguez quickly attacked and stripped him of it again.

Judgment Day wasn’t done there. The faction also laid a beatdown on IYO SKY during a segment involving Liv Morgan, adding fuel to an already volatile situation ahead of SummerSlam, where SKY and Morgan are set to meet for the Women’s World Championship.

Rhea Ripley, who has her own complicated history with Judgment Day, had seen enough. The SmackDown Women’s Champion fired off a pointed tweet — “Bunch of pussies #WWERAW” — that left little doubt about where she stands. Danhausen wasted no time responding, asking the champ whether she had a business card he could reach her at. Ripley replied with a simple “yes” and a GIF of a girl watching a building burn, signaling she’s more than open to whatever Danhausen has in mind.

With SummerSlam 2026 shaping up as a two-night event on August 1 and 2, there’s plenty of room for this alliance to develop. Ripley has a close friendship with IYO SKY, and her history with the Judgment Day faction gives her every reason to want to see them taken down a peg. Whether Danhausen’s outreach leads to a formal partnership — or just some Very Evil chaos at the expense of Judgment Day — remains to be seen, but Monday’s Raw made clear that the two are very much on the same page.
