Rhea Ripley Discusses Program With Shayna Baszler, Having Triple H As Mentor
WWE NXT star Rhea Ripley spoke with Sporting News where she spoke about a wide range of topics. Here are the highlights:
Having Triple H as a mentor:
“It’s super, super cool and he’s so smart. He knows so much about the business. I do try to soak up as much as I can and listen to as much as I can, even when he’s not talking to me. It’s such an amazing feeling knowing that he’s there and he has all of our backs. He’s there to help all of us succeed in what we want to do and what we’re doing at the moment. He’s one of our biggest cheerleaders and it’s amazing.”
Building up to facing Shayna Baszler for the NXT Women’s Championship:
“It’s been a whirlwind of emotions, to be honest. It’s been absolutely insane and so intense, but I’m loving every second of it and I’m soaking it in. I don’t care. I’m living for it. Every Wednesday that comes around, I’m like “Ooohhh, what am I going to do today?” I’m so pumped and I can’t wait to face Shayna again. I think it’s definitely going to be a match that no one is going to want to miss. I can’t wait for it. I don’t know if Shayna can wait for it, but I can’t wait for it.”
