Rhea Ripley claims that she did not propose the addition of Damian Priest to the Judgement Day

In a recent interview with Metro UK, Rhea Ripley stated that the creative team came up with the idea of including her and Damian Priest in Judgement Day. Priest and Ripley have been close friends for a long time and have appeared in a few online interviews together. She said that she was not the one who presented the concept to the WWE Creative team and that she was unsure if the crew viewed their online interviews. It was only a happy accident, according to Ripley, that she and Priest ended up in the same group.

Rhea Ripley discussed working with the boys and her bond with Damian Priest in the same interview. She stated that she and Priest had been friends for a long time and that they shared many interests. She was referring to her stature as well as her personality because she once used Damian’s gear because hers was missing. For Ripley, being in a group with the boys is quite cool, and she enjoys working with them a lot.

“I get along with them boys so well, even Priest, we’ve been friends for so long now. We’ve always talked about wanting to do an intergender tag match together, we are so similar. I wore the dude’s gear when I lost my gear, that’s how similar we are! It’s really cool being in a group with them boys, and just going out there and actually having fun and doing our thing! It’s great.”

The Extreme Rules Premium Live Event will take place on October 8th at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
