Blake Monroe has taken aim at WWE Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley in her latest ‘diary’ themed SmackDown vignette.
Following WrestleMania 42, a number of new faces made the move up to Raw and SmackDown from NXT, including Ethan Page, Joe Hendry, Ricky Saints, Sol Ruca and Fatal Influence.
Another name that made the move is Blake Monroe, who has had a series of video packages running since, hyping her arrival to the SmackDown brand.
Blake Monroe Takes Aim At Rhea Ripley
On tonight’s WWE SmackDown in Barcelona, the latest vignette for the Glamour’s SmackDown arrival aired, this time seeing her write a diary entry about the SmackDown women’s division.
More specifically, Blake took aim at Rhea Ripley ahead of her WWE Women’s Championship defence against Jade Cargill at Clash In Italy this Sunday.
She said:
“Dear diary, there are so many fascinating women in that SmackDown locker room. Take for example Rhea Ripley. Such presence, such brutality, such delicious misery wrapped in all that black leather.
“You are as captivating as can be, but while you spend all your time trying to strike fear into the hearts of others, I know you’re only hiding from your own. All that heartbreak and betrayal.
“I don’t need a fake bravado to make a splash. I turn heads just by showing up. You can run from your fears all you want but you can’t run from me. I’m the stuff of nightmares and I’m dressed as beautiful as a dream.
“Don’t get too comfortable, because the Glamour is coming to SmackDown. Yours truly, Blake Monroe.”

Who Will Be Crowned WWE’s Queen Of The Ring?
With the King and Queen of the Ring Tournaments set to get underway next week on Raw and SmackDown, we will soon find out who will be going to SummerSlam to compete for one of the men’s and women’s world titles.
On the women’s side, there are a number of women that would make sense to win the tournament and face Rhea Ripley at SummerSlam, with the frontrunner right now being Charlotte Flair, who has had some growing tensions with Rhea for months.
There is also the rising Jacy Jayne, who declared herself for the tournament on tonight’s SmackDown, and has been a thorn in Rhea’s side since Fatal Influence’s arrival on the SmackDown brand.
With Blake Monroe targeting Rhea in her latest vignette, she could also make an immediate impact on the main roster by becoming Queen of the Ring and facing Rhea Ripley at SummerSlam.
Finally, the story between Rhea and IYO SKY remains unfinished, with the option of IYO becoming Queen of the Ring and choosing to face Rhea one more time at SummerSlam being a very exciting one.
