I understand that you work long hours in the office and have to go on the road each week for WWE television tapings. Is it difficult to balance this work and travel schedule with being a parent to two young children? That you work for the family business alongside your husband Triple H helps, I imagine.
I take my kids with me on the road, as they are the most important things in my life: I don’t like to be away from my kids, and that’s part of the reason why you don’t see me on-screen as much as before . . . You know, I was always forbidden to marry someone in the business by my dad. But, yes, it’s helpful, given we both understand the rigours of our lifestyle.
Do you find it hard to leave your work at work? After all, you are technically your husband’s boss.
We actually don’t (argue) much at all, except in the business. Sometimes, you can take your work home with you and sometimes you don’t. But we always work things out.
What about the schedule for the talent: are they working too many, too few or just the right number of live events?
I think we worked it out . . . I don’t have the figures in front of me, but the averages days worked per year was actually a lot lower than you’d except. We always try to keep the balance right, and I know that’s something John Laurinaitis always thinking about. The brand extension means it’s worse than it was, but it also means there are more opportunities available for the guys who want to work.
