There are few women in WWE who can intimidate Shayna Baszler because she's an imposing presence. She's had one of the most dominant reigns as NXT Women's Champion at the top of the roster. I daresay that she was rattled when Rhea Ripley strode forth confidently into the ring, forcing her to retreat at once.
Ripley just screams 'money' because of the way she looks and the way she carries herself in the ring, in my opinion. And while Baszler's feuds haven't been the best in recent times, I have a feeling that the one with Ripley is one to watch out for. This is because, for the first time in her career, Ripley seems to be on the back foot.
But don't forget that Baszler has the numbers advantage thanks to the Horsewomen. If there's one woman that can end Baszler's reign convincingly, it's Ripley.
