Denise Salcedo had the opportunity to interview Rhea Ripley during Summer Slam media day. Rhea jokes about trying to learn how to de-stress while taking time off from performing after suffering a shoulder injury in April. Any tool she learned went out the window the day of her wedding. Thankfully, her and now husband Matthew had the opportunity to get some time away from the celebration, and just be with each other. A sweet moment of peace on an important day.
“…That forty five minutes of just me and Matt, I think that us going outside and stepping away from the chaos of the party was the best part, we got to connect on a different level… We’re finally married and we just feel so close to each other…” – Rhea Ripley
The only change she feels since her wedding day, that they feel more connected and safe. For her on screen persona, a lot has changed as she faces Liv Morgan at Summer Slam Cleveland for the WWE Women’s World Championship. You can check out the full interview here.
