In a heartwarming display of solidarity among wrestling legends, WWE Superstar Rhea Ripley recently reacted to a photo of WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus posing with a cosplayer dressed as Ripley herself. The photo, which has been making the rounds on social media, showcases the iconic Trish Stratus beaming with excitement alongside a dedicated fan clad in a Mami outfit, a nod to Ripley’s signature wrestling attire.
The exchange is particularly noteworthy, given the immense respect Ripley has for Stratus, widely regarded as one of the greatest female stars in WWE history. In fact, WWE has officially recognized Stratus as the number one female wrestler of all time, solidifying her legendary status in professional wrestling.
Ripley, who has carved out a name for herself as one of the most popular stars in pro wrestling today, boasts a massive following and frequently shares fan cosplays on her Instagram stories. Her reaction to the photo with Stratus and the cosplayer was a testament to her appreciation for the WWE legend and her enthusiasm for the fan’s creative tribute.
The photograph in question is part of a series of photos taken by Stratus with fans, including a John Cena cosplayer. The images exude a sense of joy and camaraderie, highlighting the strong bond between wrestling legends and their devoted fans.
Stratus has been vocal about her admiration for Ripley’s accomplishments, praising her for her outstanding work over the past two years. In an interview with Brioux TV, Stratus commended Ripley’s impressive title reign, her role in The Judgment Day, and her on-screen romance with Dominik Mysterio.
As Ripley currently takes a hiatus due to injury, the heartwarming exchange with Stratus serves as a reminder of the enduring spirit of camaraderie within the WWE community. While the question of who is the bigger star between Trish and Ripley remains open to debate, one thing is certain – the mutual respect and admiration between these two wrestling icons is a testament to the power of female empowerment in professional wrestling.
