The following are highlights of a new interview with former WWE Diva
Debra:

Where did the “Queen of WCW” gimmick originate
from?:
“Well, at the time I was actually married to (Nitro
announcer) Steve “Mongo” McMichael…and my background was I’m an actress and I
studied in New York with Lee Strasberg. So they brought me in over there because
of my acting and I’m athletic, and I had also won Mrs. Illinois America and Mrs.
Texas USA, and so Eric Bischoff was like ‘Why don’t we make you Queen
Debra?’…Eric wanted a real bitchy, debutante Queen Debra, and I am from the
South as you can certainly tell by my voice, and I’m definitely a pageant
winner. I remember my first interview or the first time on TV he helped me a
little bit, but then after that I knew the direction I wanted to go in and what
they wanted and what the fans wanted, so I just would write my own stuff.”

You were involved with The Four Horsemen during your run in WCW.
What was it like being around “The Nature Boy” Ric Flair?:
“Oh
man, he was so much fun. You would never know what he was going to do, because
you’re out there, you’re on live TV, and you just knew you had to go with
whatever he was going to go with…We would all end up back at the hotel after the
show, all of us, and it would be just everybody laughing, talking about the
show, and then The Nature Boy, oh my gosh; you know he does like to just dance
on tables without…he likes to take his robe off and there’s nothing up
underneath it, but you just don’t even pay any attention, it’s like ‘That’s just
Ric being Ric’…It was a good time
back then.”
