Rhea Ripley has a hilarious reason for wanting to be a character in Fortnite.
The former WWE Women’s World Champion recently made a foray into Call of Duty and Clash of Clash as a playable character. Now, Mami wants to level up by joining Fortnite as a playable character.
Speaking to Robbie and Carly for a new interview, Ripley explained her reason for wanting to be a character in the popular game — and (spoiler alert) that has to do with her husband Buddy Matthews.
“You know what I’m waiting for? I’m waiting for Fortnite, she said. “I want to be in Fortnite because when my husband plays, he can remember to text me back cause he’s playing as me.” (H/T Fightful)
