You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On Rhea Ripley: “She is good. She’s got that particular presence about her, but she’s been protected. I have never, ever, ever once been seen as that person that [officials have said] ‘Let’s strap a rocket to them and just let them go.’ I worked for it, I earned it, I fought my way to it, and once I got there, I just didn’t want to let it go, and I constantly fight for it.”
On Ripley taking the easy way out: “I think she tends to take the easy way out. She’s not on all the [WWE] live events. She’s not doing the schedule that I am … She’s been hovering around in little backstage [segments] in the back, just talking to some lads, holding the championship. I’ve been the one doing the hard work.”
