Rhea Ripley Spotted Traveling With Jey Uso, Flirty Texts Leaked, Remember Both Jey Uso And Rhea Ripley Are Married. Is This A “Cheating” Move?
The wrestling universe is ablaze with scandalous whispers as WWE stars Rhea Ripley and Jey Uso find themselves at the epicenter of a rumored affair that’s got fans questioning loyalties and blurring the lines between scripted drama and real-life betrayal. Recent sightings of the duo traveling together, coupled with leaked flirty messages, have ignited a firestorm on social media, especially since both are happily married—Ripley to AEW’s Buddy Matthews and Uso to his high school sweetheart Takecia Travis. Is this just WWE’s masterful kayfabe bleeding into reality, or a genuine “cheating” scandal waiting to explode?
It all kicked off in mid-2024 when WWE began teasing an on-screen romance between the powerhouse “Mami” Ripley and the charismatic “Yeet” maestro Jey Uso. After Ripley’s betrayal by Dominik Mysterio at SummerSlam, Uso swooped in with playful advances, like asking for her number and proposing a Waffle House date. Fans ate it up, with WWE even compiling an 8-minute YouTube playlist of their “flirty moments” that included Uso checking on Ripley post-attack and her reciprocating with cheeky social media jabs. By September 2024, Ripley posted an Instagram story of them on a flight together, captioning a photo of a sleeping Uso with, “Wonder if he’s dreaming of me?”—a line that screamed flirtation and sent shippers into overdrive. Uso fired back with a simple, teasing response, amplifying the buzz as they allied against Judgment Day foes on Raw.
Fast-forward to 2025, and the rumors refuse to die. In January, Ripley snapped a selfie with Uso’s billboard at WWE HQ, adding a “Yeet” caption that had him reposting with eyes emojis—subtle, but enough to reignite speculation. X posts from fans dissect every interaction, from Uso calling Ripley “his girl” in segments to viral clips of their chemistry during backstage saves. “Leaked texts” circulating online—though unverified—purport to show playful banter escalating beyond professional, with emojis and inside jokes that fans claim cross marital boundaries. Threads on Reddit and X label it a “love triangle” gone rogue, especially with Matthews’ cryptic posts hinting at unease over cross-promotion travels.
But let’s pump the brakes: both stars are locked in committed marriages. Ripley wed Matthews in June 2024 after a 2023 engagement, often sharing gym dates and affirming their bond as “best friends” who support each other’s grueling schedules across WWE and AEW. Matthews has publicly gushed about their partnership, emphasizing growth and trust amid industry rivals. Meanwhile, Uso has been married to Travis since 2015, sharing two sons, Jaciyah and Jeyce, and crediting her as the rock behind his solo push, including his 2025 Royal Rumble win and World Heavyweight Championship reign. Travis stays out of the spotlight as a homemaker in San Francisco, allowing Uso to chase titles while keeping family sacred.
So, is it cheating? Wrestling history screams no—this is classic WWE storytelling. Rikishi, Uso’s father, slammed the angle early on, fearing it could strain real marriages like past pushes that backfired. The “travels” are likely promo flights for Raw tapings, and flirty “texts” mirror on-air teases designed to hook viewers. Ripley has shut down personal rumors before, prioritizing her career and hubby, while Uso’s family-man image remains untarnished. Yet, the optics sting: constant proximity on the road invites invasive scrutiny, and fake leaks amplify the chaos.
As Ripley eyes a title rematch and Uso defends his belt, this “scandal” could pivot into a mixed-tag blockbuster with spouses involved—imagine Matthews crossing over for revenge. Fans on X debate fiercely, some shipping “Jhea” hard while others defend the couples’ privacy. In an era where wrestlers’ lives are public sport, this feels like engineered heat, not heartbreak. Ripley and Uso thrive on the edge, but their ringside vows suggest the real plot twist is unbreakable fidelity. Still, if those texts are real? WWE’s drama school just got a masterclass in controversy.
