“What I mean by that is, they’d have to learn how to sacrifice, to be trained, and to be disciplined, and to keep improving their craft, regardless of who they’re working with. The wrestling industry is male-dominated. But as far as a woman, you know, we have to kind of have a thick skin. And for us to be able to eat, sleep, drink, everything wrestling, that’s where your love and sacrifice comes into play in making this a successful career. And I think that being thick-skinned you cannot worry about what the men or the public or social media say, or let any outside elements define you that it’s a matter of believing in what you can do and having confidence in yourself to be successful in the industry.”
