Rhea Ripley has sent a message to WWE’s newest star after a shock debut took place.

The first edition of NXT on the CW Network saw a vignette air teasing the debut of a mystery woman who turned out to be Australian star DELTA. DELTA made her name in her native Australia as part of Riot City Wrestling where she held the same RCW Women’s Title previously held by Indi Hartwell and Demi Bennett – who is better known these days as Rhea Ripley.

On the 22nd of October edition of NXT, another vignette aired hyping the star and confirming that DELTA will now be known as ZARIA in WWE.

But she wasn’t wasting any time in introducing herself in person.

After Fatal Influence lost a tag team main event against Giulia and Stephanie Vaquer, the group went on to spin the Halloween Havoc wheel to determine the stipulation for the NXT Women’s North American Title match against Kelani Jordan. The wheel landed on ‘spinner’s choice’ but the group were quickly interrupted as ZARIA made her first entrance in the company.

Taking to social media, Rhea Ripley sent a message of support to her compatriot following her NXT debut:

Zaria… Welcome, time to show everyone what you can do! #WWENXT

Rhea Ripley might still have her sights set on regaining the Women’s World Title but it seems there are those in WWE who still have hope of a very unusual dream match for Ripley in the near future.
