Rhea Ripley Comments on Her Large Fan Support & Her Belief Why So Many Fans Support Her

Saturday’s WWE Crown Jewel: Perth post-show featured Rhea Ripley as one of the guests. One of the topics discussed included Ripley’s thoughts about her large fan support and her belief why so many fans have supported her in WWE.

“I’m a huge advocate for being yourself.

I had to go through a lot of struggles in my life to accept who I am as a person.

I’m growing as a human, I think that’s what people understand. I think that’s why the people get behind me. And they understand that everyone is growing into the person that they are supposed to be. That’s all I want to stand for. I want everyone to feel comfortable in their own skin and accept themself.”

During her speech, Ripley was interrupted by the live crowd chanting “Asuka is a bin chicken” and gave her thoughts about the chant. This was in reference to Ripley’s tag team match with IYO SKY against the Kabuki Warriors at Crown Jewel Perth and her current feud with Asuka.

“Asuka is a bin chicken, that’s exactly what I think, It’s like this bird that just eats trash.”
