Rhea Ripley Is Very Happy For Fellow Aussie Bronson Reed’s NXT Success

“The Nightmare” Rhea Ripley is very proud of “one of her favorites,” Bronson Reed. Speaking with FanSided, the former NXT Women’s Champion expressed her pride in her fellow countryman, Bronson Reed, and his recent success in NXT.

“I love Bronson Reed, he’s one of my favorites. I watched him growing up in Australia,” she said. “I was a big fan of him and Brendan Vink and even Shane Thorne and all of that. To see him finally getting the spotlight he deserves, I’m ecstatic for him. He’s been working so hard for this position for years now and he’s always been amazing and I’m glad people are starting to realize that.”

Ripley would also say that she helps more Australian wrestlers join the ranks of WWE.

“In Australia, every single performer that’s there, we work so incredibly hard to get the slightest bit of spotlight,” Ripley said. “I think the dedication of everyone there because it is so far away from America and it doesn’t really get the spotlight it deserves, so we’re all forced to work so incredibly hard just for a little bit of spotlight. I think all that dedication put into our training and into ourselves is finally being noticed and that’s why we’re all getting the recognition we are now. Hopefully one day we see a lot more Australians here because I would absolutely love that.”

Bronson Reed was the first to qualify for the NXT North American Championship Ladder Match which will take place at NXT TakeOver XXX on Saturday, August 22nd, 2020.
