Rhea Ripley has given a WWE move a fresh name ahead of the upcoming WWE Crown Jewel event in Perth, Australia. The renaming happened during a media tour promoting the show, highlighting Ripley’s playful approach to the Australian wrestling scene.
Rhea Ripley’s Australian-Themed Renaming Challenge
As WWE prepares to return to Perth for the Crown Jewel event next month, Rhea Ripley and fellow wrestler Grayson Waller have been participating in a media tour to build anticipation. During the tour, Ripley was asked to rename some of the moves used by WWE stars to sound more “Australian.”
One highlight involved Ripley renaming IYO SKY’s signature WarGames trash can dive move as “The Bin Chicken,” a nickname inspired by Australian wildlife. Ripley also humorously rebranded her own finishing maneuver, the Riptide, calling it “Not Here To F**k Spiders.” Ripley is currently involved with IYO SKY in a Raw storyline, lending the renaming some current relevance.
Details on the Renaming and Ongoing WWE Storylines
The nickname “The Bin Chicken” references the trash can spot IYO SKY performs at WarGames matches, bringing an Australian cultural twist to her dynamic move. This adds a unique element to their ongoing rivalry, with Ripley using humor to engage fans ahead of Crown Jewel. Both Ripley’s and SKY’s roles are central to current WWE programming.
