Nikki Blackheart Says Rhea Ripley Has Been Her Dream Opponent Since She Started Wrestling

Nikki Blackheart says that Rhea Ripley has been her ultimate dream opponent since she started her wrestling career.

Blackheart’s wrestling career is a young one, having only beginning wrestling following WrestleMania 39. Despite only being in the early stages of her career, she recently received her first WWE tryout and is reportedly expected to sign with WWE as a result.

While speaking to The Heavyweight Commentary show in a new interview, Nikki Blackheart spoke about what wrestler would be her dream match in the ring.

“My goodness, because the match that did it for me, where I was like, I’m going to become a wrestler, it was Rhea Ripley versus Charlotte Flair. But dream opponent, definitely Rhea. That’s since I started. I mean, as I’ve been learning more and watching more and being exposed to it, there’s other people that I would love to work. But as far as the first person that I said it would be an honor to learn from and be in the ring with, I would say Rhea.”
