Rhea Ripley, born Demi Bennett on October 11, 1996, in Adelaide, South Australia, is an Australian professional wrestler and one of WWE’s top female superstars. Known for her powerhouse style, intense persona, and dominant in-ring presence, Ripley has quickly become one of the most recognized names in WWE. She has achieved significant success across various promotions and has earned a reputation as one of the most dominant forces in women’s wrestling.
Rhea Ripley’s passion for wrestling began at a young age. Growing up in Adelaide, Ripley was a fan of wrestling and admired strong, powerful women like Lita, Chyna, and Trish Stratus. She started training in wrestling at the age of 16 at the “Adelaide Wrestling Academy,” where she developed her skills and grew into the formidable competitor that fans would come to know. Ripley’s training was intensive, and she quickly made a name for herself in local promotions in Australia.
Ripley made her wrestling debut in 2013 under the ring name “Rhea Ripley.” Over the next few years, she competed in various promotions, including the Australian-based Riot City Wrestling (RCW), where she built a solid foundation for her career. She honed her skills and began to show her potential as a rising star in the wrestling world.
Ripley’s big break came in 2017 when she was signed by WWE and assigned to their developmental brand, NXT. She made her official debut at the inaugural WWE Mae Young Classic in 2017, where she impressed audiences with her strength, athleticism, and unique look. Her participation in the tournament was the beginning of her rise within WWE.
