When I fell in love with wrestling, I fell in love with the characters and the over-the-top kind of personalities and the wrestling aspect of it.
I try to remember who I am and what I come from, because I didn't come from super means. I had to work and pray and try really hard to succeed and get everything that I wanted out of life.
Do I want music, or do I want wrestling? I wanted both.
I'm good at wrestling, and I love it with all my heart.
I didn't want to be good for a girl: I wanted to be as good, if not better than, all the guys.
You want to be taken seriously as an artist and not just known as 'that girl wrestler who sings.' So you want to go out and stand on your own legs. But at the same time, I don't negate the fact that without everything I've accomplished in wrestling, I wouldn't have been given so many really cool opportunities on the music side.
I've always loved music. I've worked on music and written music, but, it wasn't until I was actually on the road full time with WWE that I put my first album out.
To be a true star, you need to find that balance in between shining the light on the professional wrestling aspect, of being the absolute best in the ring, but also being the best character and finding that balance in between them.
I love being on the road. I sit at home too long, and I start to go a bit stir crazy.
I could never see Jeff Hardy as a bad guy, because I just want to hug him. He's an awesome person and super multi-talented.
I don't want to retire on the independent scene. I don't want my legacy to be remembered as that.
I feel like my music at least allows me to release the other side of me, a more vulnerable and sensitive side.
I wanted to be one of the best in the business, whether it was male or female.
To see how far female wrestling has come is just inspiring and incredible.
I just love working.
I think what GFW is doing is cool and unique. They're taking some of the talent you've seen elsewhere or haven't had a chance to see before because there's so much talent everywhere.
I would like to take on Charlotte. That would be fun because I've been friends with Ric Flair. He does nothing but brag about her. He is proud of her, as he should be.
I watched WWE as a child. I was a fan.
When I retire, I want to retire the right way.
I do have little trinkets. I'm a little bit of a hippie, so I have my wisdom rock - it goes with me; it's always in my purse, wherever I go. That's just me, being a hippie.
