Rhea Ripley on her friendship with Damian Priest: “Damian and I [had] been really good friends since NXT. We’ve been through everything together. We came to Raw together at the exact same time. … Finn, I connected with over time. Obviously, we kicked Edge out. … We sent him packing so we had a good connection over that.”

Ripley on Dominik Mysterio: “When my Dirty Dom, my Latino Heat — when he decided to be a man, we connected very, very quickly.”
