Rhea Ripley Discusses The Struggles Of The WWE Women’s Division
Over the years, WWE has helped start women’s versions of several popular men’s matches, such as Royal Rumble, Money In The Bank, and even a mid-card title. In an interview with Jazzy’s World, former World Champion Rhea Ripley discussed the struggles and obstacles women’s wrestling had to overcome and get the same respect as men’s wrestling.
The women in WWE, we’ve come a very, very long way. We’ve overcome a lot of obstacles that were put in the way, and it’s been growing each and every year. I think that was the biggest obstacle, just getting people to sort of take us seriously.
For the longest time, people joked about us being the toilet break, which is just plain disrespectful, especially when the women go out there, and we leave everything that we have out in the ring, and we go just as hard as the men do so don’t treat us with that disrespect. So, we’re making people realize that we can go just as hard as the men, if not harder.”
