AEWs Grand Slam: Australia was already making headlines for its stacked card and the backlash over premium seating, but things took an even more interesting turn when WWE Womens Champion Rhea Ripley was spotted at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre.
Ripley, one of WWEs top stars, was seen walking up the aisle at the venue, clearly in attendance to support her husband, AEWs Buddy Matthews. The sighting immediately had fans talking.
Ringside News obtained a photo of Ripley making her way through the venue, which only added to the conversation surrounding AEWs event. The Australian star has never been shy about supporting Matthews in his career, and with Buddy challenging Kazuchika Okada for the AEW Continental Championship, this was a huge night for him.
Meanwhile, AEWs Grand Slam: Australia is continuing to stir up controversy, with fans frustrated over ticket prices and seating issues. Originally set for Suncorp Stadium, the event was downsized to the Brisbane Entertainment Centre, leaving some high-paying ticket holders feeling shortchanged. While AEW President Tony Khan has called this one of the companys biggest international gates ever, not everyone in attendance is thrilled with how things have played out.
With Rhea Ripley now making an appearance in the crowd, the night just got even more interesting. Did you expect to see her at AEW Grand Slam: Australia? Let us know what you think in the comments.
