AEW wrestler Skye Blue was a recent guest on “Busted Open Radio” to discuss a variety of topics, including how she got her start in the wrestling industry.
Additionally, Blue had some high praise for Madison Rayne for taking her under her wing and being a great coach.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On where she started and how she made it into the industry: “I started training when I was a junior in high school. My mom came with me to every practice and every show because I was 17 and very determined like, ‘I’m gonna do this,’ and she’s like, ‘No, you’re not.’ So I started training back then and started doing shows that same year. I trained at a really small school in Woodstock, Illinois, originally. Then I moved to a school in Chicago where I train now at CFW. Then I think NWA was the first big promotion I ever worked for.”
On working with Madison Rayne as a coach: “Madison took me under her wing. She’ll remind me of the little things. Like I’ll want to jump off of whatever, I’ll want to do whatever, and she’s like, ‘Alright, Skye, you gotta look at the camera.’ She reminds me of the little things that make a difference.”
