A WWE star has revealed how former Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley helped them personally while they were out with an injury.
In speaking to the Daily Mail, Tegan Nox described picking up a ‘freak accident’ related injury in the 2018 Mae Young Classic tournament in NXT.
Describing the event but also how it went on to impact her emotionally, Nox revealed that one WWE star who was incredibly supportive was Rhea Ripley.
Tegan Nox said:
“My knee just exploded.
“It was so weird. It was just a freak accident where my toes were ever so slightly, like an inch on the ramp, and because it was unstable, it just went.
‘”I was supposed to go really far in that tournament [Mae Young Classic]. It was supposed to be me and Toni Storm in the final, and we have so much history wrestling all over the world together.
“Rhea would always come over to my house. She’d bring the dog over, because, at the time, I didn’t have a dog, and we’d just hang out. She did go hard on the internet, and I was all for it at one point. But then there was one point where I really dipped into, like, mental health issues and stuff, and as soon as I said that, she just she stopped. That shows the type of person that Rhea is.
‘”Now she’s out with an injury, which sucks, because she’s so good. She’s one of my favourite people, not just outside the ring, but inside to watch, because she’s such a good character and hot as hell.”
Rhea Ripley is current out with an injury to her shoulder, with recent reports noting that she has elected to forgo surgery and instead focus on rehab.
Everyone at RealRasslin continues to wish the best to Rhea Ripley in her recovery from injury.
