During a recent appearance on Maria Menounos’ “Heal Squad” podcast, WWE Superstar Sonya Deville recalled requesting Vince McMahon for promo time to develop her character during her storyline with Mandy Rose.
Deville further revealed that The Miz’s reaction to her promo had made her very emotional.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On asking Vince McMahon for promo time: “I was in this storyline with Mandy [Rose], my best friend, and it was a heated angle. I called him, I said, ‘Sir can you please give me one opportunity to show you the passion and the intention that I give in the ring can translate to the microphone? One promo, give me one promo segment on the microphone, if I sh*t the bed you can take the mic away forever.’”
On Miz’s reaction to her first promo: “I remember I walked off-stage and Miz was standing backstage and he was like, ‘that’s one of the best promos I ever heard’, and I started crying because coming from him, someone who’s great on the mic and he’s been around for so long, I was like wow. And Vince said something nice to me along the lines of ‘good job, you delivered’ and like that to me was such an accomplishment.”
