Rhea Ripley recently spoke with the New York Post, where the NXT superstar discussed her upcoming match at WrestleMania 36, and how she’s had to overcome a dark history and learn from her scars.
Check out some highlights below:
On her upcoming match at WrestleMania:
To be knowing that I’m going to WrestleMania 36 to face Charlotte Flair and put my NXT championship on the line is just absolutely insane, I’m so, so excited. Man, I’m going to be in tears afterward. I know it.
On drawing strength from her scars:
I still feel myself slipping there from time to time, but I find that if I do look at the scars that I have from that time it helps me to remind myself that I’ve been through all of this and I was able to overcome it, And I think that that’s really special in the way that I know that I can keep going and keep doing what I love and I have people in my life that are going to help me overcome whatever I need to overcome at that point in time. … I have fans there for me and I’m legitimately working the job I dreamt about since being a child and I have to remember that sometimes.
On her different look:
Especially being a punk and all that, I love my look and I don’t care if someone doesn’t like it, I really couldn’t care less because I know that I’m being me and that’s what I’m trying to put forward. I’m trying to put forward that everyone should be comfortable in their own skin and they should be happy being themselves.
