Years Before Dominating Both Men and Women in WWE, Rhea Ripley Envisioned What Would Happen if She Fought Two Gym Bros: “I Would Probably…”

Published 09/21/2023, 5:30 AM EDT

Rhea Ripley has been in WWE for only five years and she is already a Grand Slam Champion. With many title reigns under her belt, she has been a dominant force in the women’s division. Not to forget that men fear her as much as the women in the WWE locker room.

Ripley is never afraid to fight anyone (men or women). On multiple occasions, she has made many men look like weaklings… that’s how strong Mami is. That said, she once talked about what would happen if she encountered two gym bros that annoy her while working out.

In December 2020, Ripley sat down for an interview with former WWE ring announcer Lilian Garcia. While playing a rapid-fire round called CG Speed, Not Speed Round, she revealed what would happen if she went against not one but two gym bros who agitate her at the gym.

She claimed she would beat the two gym bros without even breaking a sweat. She said, “You’ll hear it from all the way over there and you’ll see my face and I’m like [makes an annoyed face] and I like to look at them and he’s like don’t, they’re gonna fight you. I am like I don’t care they can fight me. I will probably win.”

Well, there is no doubt that Ripley has the strength and capability to deliver on her promise. There have been many incidents in WWE where she has fought a male superstar and decimated them.

The time when Ripley left men in ruins

Last year in December, Ripley fought her very first inter-gender match in WWE. Suffice to say, the match was one-sided. Throughout the match, ‘The Eradicator’ dominated Akira Tozawa and delivered a Riptide on him before securing the three-count.

It was an easy win for her and many times throughout the match, she even mocked her opponent like a lioness playing with its prey. This is just one example of when she became a bane in men’s lives. Remember when the Women’s World Champion went viral for body-slamming Luke Gallows?

During a match between Finn Balor and Karl Anderson in October 2022, she picked up and slammed Luke Gallows with ease in the outside area. She later hit Anderson with a low blow, leading to Balor’s pinfall victory. In addition, she has stood toe-to-toe with Solo Sikoa, Santos Escobar, Kevin Owens, and many more.
