Rhea Ripley Talks Getting Advice From Shawn Michaels

One of the biggest positives of the NXT system is the advice you can get from wrestling legends. One of the legends available is Shawn Michaels and one of the lucky talents in Rhea Ripley.

Ripley recently told WWOS about the advice she has gotten from people like Michaels and Triple H. Here is the full quote:

“I’ve had a lot of people pass on advice to me and it’s super crazy to think about that. Having people like Triple H and Shawn Michaels at the performance centre, it’s just insane. All the people around me are just so great. They’ve all been through it and they all know so much and to have them all give me their knowledge is so insane. Going into work and seeing Shawn Michaels – someone I watched growing up – how many people can say that? That they get to see people like Shawn Michaels at work and that they get to learn off Shawn Michaels. To me that’s insane.”

Funny enough, Michaels has also told her that she doesn’t have to listen to an old man like him.

“I remember Shawn Michaels just walking around, and he came over to me and started telling me things, and he’s like, ‘You don’t have to listen to me, I’m just an old man.’ I’m like, ‘You’re not just an old man, you’re Shawn Michaels! You’re one of the best. Of course I’m going to listen to you.'”

Regardless of whether you choose to use the feedback or not, having Shawn Michaels’ advice at your disposal is a huge advantage. Ripley recently competed at NXT Takeover: In Your House where she unsuccessfully challenged for the NXT Women’s Championship.
