Rhea Ripley Takes A Stand Against Scalper Fans
Rhea Ripley has become one of the most polarising and popular figures in professional wrestling since she signed with WWE in 2017. As a result, a number of fans have been observed swarming the Aussie export at airports hoping to obtain mutiple signatures.
Ripley has taken to Twitter to express her displeasure with the situation:
People need to respect that no means no!
At airports do not follow me outside. Today has put me off completely! I will not sign ANYTHING that isn’t a personal photo of us anymore. Hate me, I don’t care. Disagree with me, try putting yourselves in our shoes for one bloody day.

Fans looking to obtain signatures on mutiple items at one time are often looking to resell at an inflated price, capitalising on the individuals popularity to turn a profit.
