Rhea Ripley and 'The Game' Triple H

Rhea Ripley has commented on what the backstage environment is currently like in WWE with Triple H in charge of creative.

Before her successful run on the main roster, The Eradicator competed in NXT and NXT UK, where she became the first-ever NXT United Kingdom Women's Champion. She has won the RAW Women's Title and Women's Tag Team Title on the main roster.

After Vince McMahon retired from the company, The Game was appointed as the head of the creative team. Before this, Triple H was the founder and executive producer of NXT, overseeing the talent of the black and gold brand.

In a recent interview with FOX Sports Australia, Rhea Ripley described the current backstage environment on the main roster as positive. She also shared that she enjoys working with Triple H and learns new things from him every week.

“It feels like NXT again. It feels like that family environment that I really loved about NXT and miss at the same time. He’s [Triple H] very hands-on, extremely hands-on, which is something I really appreciate. I love being able to go out there and talk to him and just get his opinion on things and learn from him every single Monday, whether it be something small or something big," said Ripley.
