Since being called up to the main roster, Rhea Ripley has undergone a significant change in how she looks on WWE TV.
Speaking on a recent edition of the “BWGS Pod,” The Judgment Day member commented on the evolution of her look and character, deciding to embrace her authentic self, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On her look when she first joined WWE: “[I signed to WWE at] a time when females weren’t big and bulky, they didn’t have tattoos. They all had the long hair and I’m glad for someone like – I don’t actually give her enough credit, but Ruby Riott, she was the first one that I really looked at and was like, ‘Wow, she’s covered in tattoos. She’s got short hair, she looks super cool.’ I remember tagging with her quite a few times on the [NXT] coconut shows, which were like non-televised shows. She helped me just bring out that side of me that was me.”
On deciding to embrace her authentic self: “I hate fake people, and I was one. I was like, ‘Just don’t care what anyone thinks about you. If they don’t like you, they don’t deserve to be in your life.”’
