You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On being a fan of Total Divas: “[They] used to have a show called Total Divas that played on E!, and I was obsessed with that show in high school. I was like, ‘These girls are so cool, they’re so athletic, they have the coolest style.’ I just thought it was so, so interesting.”
On applying to WWE: “So I applied online. I didn’t hear anything, and then I ended up emailing my modeling agency, and I was like, ‘[This is] so random, but I have this really weird life goal to be in WWE.’ … Two weeks later, I got invited to the SummerSlam tryout in Las Vegas.”
