WWE NXT head Shawn Michaels has praised the efforts of WWE Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley, who he sees plenty of big things for in the future.
On a recent edition of the “Cheap Heat” podcast, Michaels discussed Ripley’s success this year and what the Australian brings to the table. He said,
“She is a special athlete, [has] a look, a charisma, the it factor that we talk about. I didn’t know that she was going to sort of mature and elevate herself so quickly and look so comfortable [in performing].
“I look at a lot of the women that are on the main roster now, the Biancas and the Charlottes, and again, a great number of them that were here [in ‘NXT’], and just the presence and the comfort and the confidence that they have out there is just amazing to me, especially when you’ve gotten to see him from the beginning. Again, that’s why [Triple H] and I are so into [working behind the scenes], because you get to be such a real part of their journey and it happens right in front of you.”
When asked if Ripley could go down as the greatest female Superstar ever, Michaels said she holds an unlimited amount of potential to become the GOAT one day.
This isn’t the first time Michaels has praised Ripley. In July of this year, HBK said that Ripley will surpass anything that Chyna accomplished in her career.
