However I selected to come back again to ensure that we showcase girls’s wrestling as a result of I assumed what girls had been doing was so badass and so they weren’t being appreciated for it. Truthfully, Whole Divas ought to have been praised much more, I felt, as a result of what we had been doing was we actually had been on the level of virtually beating the Kardashians within the rankings. We had been shaking the world up and like, what a good time. We may have had the trade behind us, however as an alternative they used it to show it towards us. That was actually surprising to me as a result of I used to be like, ‘However wait, we’re making nice adjustments for Girls’s Wrestling. Why are you hating on it?’”

They push who they need the group to be behind. Notion is actuality. That’s WWE to a T. Although the followers suppose they personal it, no, they chuckle within the again. ‘No, we personal you on the finish of the day.’ So I really consider Whole Divas was the very first thing they could not management. They could not management the success. They could not management what the mainstream was.”
