Watch NXT’s Dante Chen Imitate Rhea Ripley’s WWE Entrance (VIDEO)

WWE

Dante Chen has caught the attention of WWE Raw star Rhea Ripley for imitating her entrance at a recent NXT house show.

At the October 29 NXT event in Winter Haven, FL, it was the men’s’ turn to compete in a Halloween Battle Royal.

NXT stars sported fun costumes for the over the top rope battle royal, with the winner going on to challenge for Bron Breakker’s NXT Championship later in the night.

WWE has shared videos to social media featuring some of the costumes, including Edris Enofe’s Boogeyman cosplay, and Brutus Creed impersonating the late Ultimate Warrior.

In one of the most viral clips from the show, Dante Chen made his entrance dressed as Rhea Ripley. The NXT star performed all of Ripley’s signature taunts, big stomp and all.

You can watch the entrance below:
