Piper Niven recently spoke with Metro to promote the Mae Young Classic. Here are some of the highlights:
On showing her personality on the Mae Young Classic:
“Yeah I think so, because a bigger woman, we can be depicted in such a way in wrestling that if you’re bigger you’ve got to be grumpy and wear dark colors. Being a bigger woman in wrestling is almost a negative. So for me it’s important to come out and be bright and bubbly so that young kids can know that being bigger is not a bad thing, and it’s good that they can have someone to relate to and someone who can show them that just being different is not bad.”
On wanting to wrestle Aja Kong:
“When I was growing up and beginning to understand wrestling, she was one of the people I thought would be an honor to wrestle. Now I’m older, I’d really love to wrestle her, and it’d be a big tick off my wishlist. If it’s going to be anywhere in the UK, I’d want it to be at Pro Wrestling Eve.”
