Rhea Ripley discusses the šidea of having children.
One thing that women in pro wrestling have to sacrifice to succeed in the early stages of their career is early motherhood, however several established starsš in pro wrestling have taken long breaks from wrestling to have a baby, including the likes of Alexa Bliss, Becky Lynch and more.
While , Rhea discussed the sacrifices women hšave to make to be successful in WWE.
"Exactly and like if you think about it this way as well a lot of us we get motherhood taken away for a long time. I'm still young, yes, but I worked for WWE. It's very demanding. I probably can't have kids for the next five to ten years because I don't want to have to bring them on the road and put them through that. I'm not good at that, but then you look at someone like Becky Lynch, who did go and have a kid and did come back and is still the badass, the man. She is herself and she's a great mother while she does that. She brings Roux on the road every now and then and she's absolutely killing it. But yeah, we get a lot taken away from us or pushed back, and I don't think people really realize that."
