Rhea Ripley on why she referenced Becky Lynch’s daughter on WWE RAW
Rhea Ripley took matters to another level when she claimed Becky Lynch’s daughter would be calling her “Mami” after she defeats The Man at WrestleMania.
During her appearance on The MMA Hour with Ariel Helwani, Ripley claimed that she has always been respectful to The Man. Helwani pointed out that she just mentioned Lynch’s daughter on WWE RAW and most people would view that as a sign of disrespect.
“I understand. But at the end of the day, I feel like I just wasn’t getting through to her [Becky Lynch]. Like I said, I wanted her attention. It is easy to get everyone else’s attention, I wanted her attention. So what is the best way to get her attention? I mean, there is no better way than bringing up her daughter and I’m done being respectful at this point. I really am, because I want to see that fighting Becky that I know is there deep down inside. I want her to realize that I could have done all of these things and I chose not to. But, if driven to that point, I will,” she said.You can check out the video below:
