The WWE women’s division currently has Rhea Ripley as one of its top marquee attractions. The Eradicator, who will face Charlotte Flair in a pivotal match for her career at WrestleMania 39, is making her way there despite the organization’s shifting policies towards women. However, she was subjected to a bad experience with the fans recently at the airport.
Despite being a powerhouse on WWE’s television programming, at the end of the day, Rhea Ripley is also a woman. She recently brought up the disrespectful treatment she received at the airport.
Apparently, Rhea Ripley wanted to just leave quietly, and she turned down fans for photos and autographs. She took to Twitter to reveal this situation, stating that the whole experience completely put her off.
“People need to respect that no means no! At airports do not follow me outside. Today has put me off completely! I will not sign ANYTHING that isn’t a personal photo of us anymore. Hate me, I don’t care. Disagree with me, try putting yourselves in our shoes for one bloody day.”
While we think of celebrities as these larger-than-life personalities, fans often forgot that they are also humans. People like Rhea Ripley like their personal space and have every right to keep outsiders from invading it at will if they do not feel like interacting with them, even if they are approaching with good intentions.
On the flip side, Rhea Ripley has her complete focus on one of the most important matches of her WWE career. The Nightmare is set to compete against Charlotte Flair for the SmackDown Women’s championship at WrestleMania 39, with all signs pointing towards the match being the main event for Night 1 of the show.
Do you agree with Rhea Ripley? Was she right in defending her personal space? Sound off in the comments!
