Doudrop has had a fairly quick ascension on WWE RAW, and now the Scottish superstar has the chance to dethrone Becky Lynch as the WWE RAW Women’s Champion at WWE Royal Rumble.
Speaking to Sports Illustrated ahead of the match, Doudrop discussed this opportunity and described how embracing who she is has been crucial to her success.
“For the longest time, I thought I was an anomaly,” Droupdrop said. “I spent so much of my teenage years wishing I was someone else. I hated so much of myself—I hated my hair; I hated being big. No matter how I tried, I couldn’t get any smaller. I didn’t want to be the big girl. But wrestling changed everything for me. Wrestling taught me what makes me different is what makes me special. It took a long time to learn that, but I’m lucky to have had wrestling. People should love themselves, and I want to be here to share that message.”
As far as her championship match goes, Doudrop plans on showing the WWE Universe why there are very few, if any, WWE Superstars like her.
“I’m as agile as they come,” she says. “The other only wrestler my size that can move better than me is Keith Lee. My style is going to work particularly well with Becky’s style. This is my chance to let out my full potential, and I’m excited to make the most of this opportunity.”
