WWE’s trip to Japan wasn’t just about in-ring action—three of the company’s top stars left with a permanent reminder of their time overseas. CM Punk, Rhea Ripley, and Raquel Rodriguez ended their Tokyo tour by getting matching tattoos before flying back to the United States.

The trio spent a lot of time working together during WWE’s SuperShow events on October 17 and 18. On night one, Punk, Ripley, and IYO SKY aligned to take out Dominik Mysterio. The following evening, Ripley and Rodriguez faced each other in a fatal four-way match for the WWE Women’s World Championship that also featured IYO SKY and champion Stephanie Vaquer. Ripley reportedly suffered a broken nose during the match.

Before departing Japan, Ripley revealed on social media that she, Punk, and Rodriguez got matching tattoos to commemorate the tour.

This isn’t the first time Ripley has gotten matching tattoos with fellow WWE stars. She previously got inked alongside Judgment Day teammates Dominik Mysterio and Damian Priest during WWE’s 2023 trip to Puerto Rico for Backlash.

With Ripley now recovering from her broken nose, her status for upcoming shows—including Saturday Night’s Main Event on November 1—remains uncertain. But the memories of Japan, and the bond with her fellow Superstars, are clearly going to last.
