Although Dominik Mysterio couldn’t succeed in his drive, his Mami enjoyed a better fate at WrestleMania 40. Rhea Ripley spent a stunning weekend reclaiming her top position in the division. She defended her Women’s World Championship against Becky Lynch to cement her top-dog status. Her Judgment Day peer also enjoyed a fantastic outing with Damian Priest gaining the WWE Heavyweight Championship after a successful cash-in.

Besides enjoying her professional delight, Mami shifted her focus on living the personal bliss too. And the new member of her family, Bella, the Pitbull, seems to be the source of it.

Mami has crossed every hurdle that has strayed onto her path to reach the pinnacle of success. Ever since winning the SmackDown Women’s Championship from Charlotte Flair at last year’s WrestleMania, the Eradicator has been unstoppable. From Zoey Stark, Nia Jax, and Zelina Vega to Becky Lynch, every fierce woman who dared to get in Mami’s way, had to submit to her paramount supremacy. But the 26-year-old didn’t always do it without sweating out. Even before Mania, the Eradicator reportedly bore with a severe panic attack, stretching for nearly two hours. So, she needs to unwind a bit to balance the stress. For this reason, she decided to welcome a new paw baby (a Pitbull) to her house and introduced it to the world via a tweet. She wrote in the caption, ”Welcome to the family, Bella”

The wrestler already had tons of pets in her home. Bella is only the latest cutest addition to the list. Also, given that WWE loosened up the schedule of superstars lately, she will get more chances to bond with her new pet at home.

WWE bigwigs have a habit of flaunting their pets to the world

WWE superstars’ pets’ fame all over the internet ain’t any less than their own. Cody Rhodes’ dog made headlines recently after being subjected to The Rock’s wrath online. On the build-up of their pre-WrestleMania bout, The Great One took to his Twitter to take a shot at the non-human buddy of the American Nightmare. It made a massive stir among the fans and prompted Brandy Rhodes to fire a countershot.

To those unversed, Rhodes’ beloved dog is an old hat in the WWE town, making his debut during a backstage interview with Cathy Kelley, ahead of Money in The Bank PLE last year. On the other hand, United States Champion Logan Paul also gave a huge shout-out to his dog, revealing his mammoth weight gain in the recent past.
