The WWE Hall of Fame, Kevin Nashhe filled Rhea Ripley with praise by comparing it with Hulk Hogan. In his Kliq This podcast, Kevin Nash described Rhea Ripley as one of the most impressive stars of current professional wrestling.
“Rhea (Ripley)what athletic it is. It is undoubtedly one of the most important stars of wrestling currently. Es rhea. It seems that he could face 50% of the male cast. It gives the impression of being an exceptional star. How do the stars“.
Reflecting on icons of the past, Kevin Nash compared Ripley's aura with Hulk Hogan's. “I saw Hogan work, and I would swear that he measured 2.05 m because he was simply imposing, his charisma, everything else. And then, when I finally met him, he did not approach even at that height. The same thing happens with Rhea. I thought Rhea measured 1.83 meters and weighed 84 kilos, and probably measures 1.70 meters. But on television, how it moves, it gives the impression of being an imposing star, as usually happens with the big stars“.
WWE's ex -champion specifically highlighted his ability to sell movements, his talent to react to opponents' offensives, as a particularly rare skill in the current wrestling panorama. Nash also addressed the psychological aspects of the fighting of the Australian fighter, pointing out how their attacks should be represented differently from that of its opponents.
“I said a long time ago in this program that There are very few people who know how to sell the shares in the ring, and Rhea knows how to sell, she knows how to sell them well. A kick from Rhea to one of his opponents in a fight should feel and sell differently from Roxanne's kick to Rhea for example. Not everything is the same. And I think psychology should influence combat. ”
Last Monday at Raw, Rhea Ripley defeated Kairi Sane to qualify for Ladder Match Women's Money in the Bank. Alexa Bliss, Roxanne Perez and Giulia have also qualified for this fight. There are still two fighters to qualify. This Friday at Smackdown, Jade Cargill, Nia Jax and Naomi will try to get their place.
