RHEA RIPLEY ROCKS
“I’ve always been a brutal kid. I loved soccer, I loved netball, I loved rugby, I loved karate. I loved everything, especially the contact sports. Watching wrestling and how brutal it was sometimes, it really brought me in. I love weapons, all that sort of stuff…”
You love violence, basically.
“Violence, yeah,” comes the response, followed by a guilty chuckle. “I’m a very violent individual!”
is rarely the hardest person in the room, but it’s safe to say that Rhea Ripley could give us an absolute kicking. Luckily, she seems to have no such intentions; she’s actually one of the friendliest people you could ever share an interview with. Plus, she’s thousands of miles away, beaming in via video link from sunny Florida while we sit in the comfort of a miserable, rainy spring evening here in the UK. Dressed in a Blackcraft hoodie, her blonde, spiky hair shaven round the sides and rocking black nail polish, piercings and dark a total rockstar.
