One Of A Kind

Shawn Michaels was asked if he sees similarities between Rhea Ripley and Chyna during an interview with Riju Dasgupta for Sportskeeda.

Michaels knows Chyna was unique and changed wrestling. He also said he would always be biased toward her. The WWE Hall of Famer then praised Ripley and stated that he knew she was special from the start.

“Chyna was one of the rare and unique people,” Michaels said. “I think she changed the face of women’s wrestling in a big way. I think she was just unlike any others before her. But look, Rhea is absolutely one of my favorites. I knew it from the day I walked into NXT that you could see that she was something special. I wanted to do everything that I could to be a part of her career.”
