WWE Star On NSFW Moment With Rhea Ripley: “It Was A Good Time”
A WWE star recently spoke about having fun with Rhea Ripley during a memorable NSFW moment.
In March 2024, The Eradicator defended her Women’s World Championship in a triple threat match against Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler at a live event. Since it was a live show, the wrestlers had more freedom to experiment with new moves and comedic spots.
As a way to entertain the fans, Nia Jax and Rhea Ripley came up with the idea of doing a stink face spot during the match. Rhea performed a proper Rikishi-style stink face on Jax, and the crowd loved it.
Nia Jax Comments On Getting Stink Faced By Rhea Ripley
Speaking on the Insight with Chris Van Vliet podcast, Nia Jax revealed how much she enjoyed sharing that moment with Rhea Ripley. She said it was her idea, but Ripley elevated it with added drama, making the spot even more entertaining and viral:
“Well, I mean, it was my idea to stink face. It wasn’t my idea for her to get them freaking cheeks out. So obviously, that’s what I do. I do the stink face, and as a heel, I like to rub it in, literally. I just thought we were on the live event. I thought one night, let’s change this up. Why not?
Because it was a cool Triple Threat moment, me her and Shayna, and I was like, ‘Why don’t you give me a stink face?’ She’s like, really? She was like, ‘You mean like Rikishi style?’ I was like, ‘Yeah, do the full Rikishi. Get it, get it!’ And then we did it.
And obviously, like, the crowd went nuts, and then it was a viral moment, and yeah, and then we had a good time. We actually switched it a couple nights because everybody was expecting it and I was trying to be a dick about it.
Then I did it to Shayna, where Shayna was like, ‘Let me have it.’ She closed her eyes, and then I freaking took out Rhea, and then she didn’t realize it was me. It was funny. It was a good time.”
