WWE has always maintained an environment where the WWE Universe gets to interact with the Superstars. Often, the interaction takes place backstage or at events. However, some superstars take the level up a bit high and directly interact with their fans during matches.
There have been ample such incidents. Back during WWE Capitol Punishment 2011, R-Truth directly interacted with a fan by snatching his soda. One time, CM Punk jumped into the WWE Universe after winning the World Title, and another time, the fans took over WWE RAW with the help of Daniel Bryan.

However, recently another superstar took the interaction to a brand new level. During a live show of ‘WWE Sunday Stunner’, Rhea Ripley, interacted with a fan in an extremely humorous manner. At one point in the show, Ripley was down at the ringside.
However, instead of selling the attack, she rolled herself near the steel barricade, put her hand inside it, and untied the shoelace of a fan. The video then showed Ripley laughing and turning her face away. The interaction was a hilarious one and had the internet rolled away in laughter.

At least Ripley did it while the fan was seated, unlike Bill Goldberg.

WWE heels are often known for their heel work or their villainous acts, which often include going against the fans. And what Rhea Ripley did here was an excellent example of heelwork without crossing any sort of limits.
