In the lead-up to the weekend's action in Las Vegas, Ripley took part in an autograph session with fans.

During the signing, one fan presented the Eradicator with an adoption certificate.

They said: "I’ve been waiting for this since last WrestleMania.

"It took me months to get this — can you sign this to be my new Mami?"
