SmackDown Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley has been making waves in the wrestling world, and for good reason. Her dominant in-ring skills and strong character have drawn comparisons to one of wrestling's most groundbreaking talents, Chyna.

Diamond Dallas Page recently spoke to Inside the Ropes and discussed how Ripley exhibits some of the best parts of Chyna's unforgettable character.

“Rhea she reminds me of another Chyna because she can go out there and beat guys, and I’m going to believe it because she’s that good,” Page said about Chyna.

Chyna was a trailblazer in her day, breaking barriers by competing against men and becoming one of the most dominant female wrestlers of all time. Unfortunately, she was not inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame until after her passing, but her legacy lives on.

Ripley has been compared to Chyna for her ability to wrestle with men and her overall dominance in the ring. At Backlash in Puerto Rico, the current SmackDown Women's Champion will put her title on the line against Zelina Vega. The match will take place in Vega's home island, giving her the advantage of the home field. However, it would be shocking if Vega walks out as the champion, as Ripley is still expected to come out on top.

DDP's comparison of Ripley to Chyna speaks volumes about Ripley's abilities and impact in the wrestling world. Chyna paved the way for female wrestlers to compete against men, and Ripley is carrying on that legacy. Her physicality and no-nonsense attitude make her a force to be reckoned with in the ring.

Back in the day, Chyna made a significant impact on wrestling that is impossible to ignore. It's a testament to her legacy that Ripley is being compared to her, as Chyna paved the way for a generation of female wrestlers. Many of them, including Ripley, have been inspired by Chyna's groundbreaking career.
