"We look like twins and I absolutely love it"- Rhea Ripley shares her love for Chris Motionless post-WWE WrestleMania Night One

She responded by saying that the band is her absolute favorite. She further stated how she and Chris Motionless look alike and are often compared to each other.
"That was a dream come true. Like, I know we talk about WrestleMania and how everyone works so hard to, like, compete on this grand stage, and also it being WrestleMania XL, the biggest WrestleMania. I'm so glad and so happy and so privileged and so ecstatic that I got to share that with Motionless in White. The moshes, they know how much I love Motionless in White, how much I love Chris Motionless and how we have been compared to each other for a very long time. We look like twins and I absolutely love it." [1:23-2:23]
