Rhea Ripley is one of the biggest stars on NXT and here is all you need to know about her net worth and more
Rhea Ripley has been one of the breakout stars in WWE and has already achieved a lot during her time on NXT.
The 23-year-old already has won the NXT Women’s title and the NXT UK Women’s title, apart from featuring in WrestleMania.
All that has been achieved at a very young age, and a lot if expected from the Australian. Ripley is also the first Australian champion in the history of WWE and here is all you need to know about her.
Ripley started her early wrestling career in the Australian promotion Riot City Wrestling in 2013. She is a two-time champion in that promotion and also wrestling in the New Horizon Pro Wrestling promotion.
Ripley also performed at the Melbourne City Wrestling promotion and fought her last match at Riot City Wrestling in 2017 before signing for WWE.
Ripley, real name Demi Bennett, signed for WWE and performed in the first Mae Young Classic but lost in the second round to Dakota Kai.
She made her NXT TV debut in October 2017 and then returned for the 2018 Mae Young Classic sporting a new look.
However, she lost in the semi-finals of this competition to Io Shirai. Ripley then joined the NXT UK brand as that was growing and also became the first Women’s champion in that promotion.
She also became the first Australian champion in WWE but her move to NXT was coming soon. Despite losing the UK title and not getting a rematch, she started a feud with Shayna Baszler, the NXT Women’s Champion a few months later.
Although Ripley led her team to a WarGames win and also an NXT win in Survivor Series, there was more to come.
She beat Baszler to become the NXT title but lost it to Charlotte at WrestleMania 36.
Ripley has been in a relationship with fellow wrestler Demetri Action Jackson. Jackson, the boyfriend of Ripley, has featured on several indie promotions.
However, the pair have shared several photos online via their social media accounts.
Ripley is one of the fast rising stars in WWE and has an estimated net worth of almost $1.5million, according to a report.
However, her salary ranges from $50,000 to $150,000, according to the same report, while others suggest it could be more than $1m.
