The Eradicator rose to fame over the last year, presenting herself as a dominating superstar with a no-nonsense personality. Her exceptional strength has allowed her to sometimes even tussle with male superstars. Her talent has been recognized by fans and veterans alike, leading to her being crowned the Women's World Champion after taking down Charlotte Flair.
Speaking on this week's episode of Sportskeeda's UnSKripted, Bill Apter praised the Judgment Day member for her presence. According to him, Rhea Ripley was his pick for the female wrestler of the year 2023.

"Absolutely amazing. I don't think Rhea was the best overall in-ring performer. I still look to Charlotte Flair on that very high pedestal of an in-ring performer. But both of them, their ring presence is amazing, but I think that Rhea has really stood out this year, and changed a lot in the whole division of the way attitudes go in the ladies division."

A fan of pro wrestling since childhood, Shubhajit decided to start creating content on the sport out of passion. Before covering a piece of news or rumor, he conducts thorough research, ensuring information in his work is reliable and completely accurate.
Although Shubhajit admires numerous pro wrestlers, his current favorite is WWE superstar Drew McIntyre. He is fond of The Scottish Warrior’s character work and innovative quips.
If there is one storyline he can work on in WWE, Shubhajit would book Roman Reigns’ future with The Bloodline following WrestleMania XL, where he lost to Cody Rhodes. He would have Reigns’ stablemates excommunicate him, laying the foundation for a gimmick change for the former. After Reigns’ exit from the faction, Shubhajit would portray him as an anti-hero trying hard to claw his way back up to the top.
Apart from reporting on pro wrestling, Shubhajit enjoys competitive gaming and reading.
