Social Media Exchange Reveals Ripley’s Newfound Spanish Skills
In the world of professional wrestling, it’s not just the in-ring action that keeps fans engaged; sometimes, it’s the off-screen camaraderie and playful banter between Superstars. A recent exchange between WWE’s Zelina Vega and Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley is a testament to that.
Known for their humorous interactions on social media, Zelina, often referred to as “Queen Zelina” or “Mami,” and Ripley, dubbed “The Eradicator,” once again entertained fans with their latest antics. Ripley, showcasing her playful side, shared a meme on her Instagram stories suggesting she’d participate in the fictitious “National Throw Short People Day” by tossing Vega. Not one to be outdone, Vega responded with a cheeky post comparing Ripley to the Anime character “Ryuk,” highlighting their uncanny resemblance.
However, the highlight of their exchange came when Vega decided to extend birthday wishes to Ripley. Their conversation took an unexpected turn when Ripley responded in fluent Spanish, leaving Vega both surprised and amused. In a light-hearted jab, Vega credited fellow WWE Superstars Dominik Mysterio and Damian Priest for Ripley’s newfound linguistic skills. She quipped in her post, “That’s what I get for trying to be nice on Rhea’s bday. Priest and Dumb Dumb better stop teaching her Spanish.”
This playful exchange underscores the close-knit relationships and camaraderie that exist behind the scenes in WWE. While they may be opponents in the ring, outside of it, they’re colleagues who share mutual respect and, evidently, a good sense of humor.
