Lola Vice believes she was born to be a professional wrestler.
NXT Superstar Lola Vice recently sat down with Scott Fishman of TVInsider. When asked what moment made her want to take the leap from MMA to professional wrestling, Vice pointed to the first time she saw WrestleMania and began to train. She felt like she was born to do it.
“I think the moment I saw WrestleMania, I fell in love with WWE,” Lola Vice said. “Also, when I started training there I just knew this was what I was born to do. I think a moment in my career so far that solidified what I offered to this company was the Breakout Tournament. When I won, I showed them why I am Lola Vice.
“It gave me the confidence moving forward to challenge all these women, especially Natalya. To be the first woman in NXT to do an NXT Underground match was a big accomplishment for me. And on Sunday, I’m going to do it again against Shayna Baszler.”
When asked what her biggest challenge has been since joining WWE, Vice would say it’s the contrast of styles between her and the other women on the roster.
“Some of these women are extremely acrobatic and athletic. I’m a fighter, so those types of opponents are a little more challenging,” Lola Vice admitted. “My knockout power is incomparable, though. I’d say the challenge is the different styles and backgrounds and how my style works with theirs.”
When asked what the best piece of advice she had received was, Vice said it was just to be herself and stay unique to her style.
“To be myself and stay unique in my style, which I think I’ve done a good job at,” Lola Vice said. “My resume is different than anyone. I’ve never changed for anybody. I stayed true to my creativity and personality. It’s all coming to life.”
