Rhea Ripley on 'Mami' being a Damian Priest idea

Ripley has been calling herself 'Mami' for quite some time now. Earlier this year, she spoke with Sam Roberts of Notsam Wrestling and revealed that the sobriquet was Damian Priest's idea.

Here's what she said:

"[Mami] was a Priest thing. I went out there, came back after kneeing myself in the face and busting my front two teeth, I had braces for a week, it was great. I came back from that, and we came back on Rey's anniversary. That's where I decided to be a little menace, be myself, and I ordered an Eddie Guerrero shirt and I came out with 'I'm Your Papi' shirt, just to see what the hell was going to happen from that. That was a 'me' call and just me doing something that I thought was right and I wanted to stir the pot a little bit. I started the whole Papi thing, I got told I couldn't be Papi, so Priest was like, 'Well, you're Mami.'" [H/T - Fightful]

Rhea Ripley is Priest's biggest supporter inside and outside the squared circle. She considers him a big brother in real life and was elated over him finally winning the big one at The Show of Shows.
