WWE Divas Champion Charlotte recently spoke with WKYC Channel 3 to promote tonight’s WWE Fastlane PPV and below are some interview highlights:
On never imagining herself as a WWE Diva when she was growing up:
“(My dad) was so into sports, and especially volleyball, he never mentioned getting into wrestling. My brothers obviously wanted to be wrestlers, but for me, it was sports, sports, sports. I never pictured myself as a diva because I remember sitting front row in Charlotte and Torrie and Sable did the body-paint bikinis, and I was like, ‘Oh, they are so beautiful.’ I just never pictured myself as a diva or wanting to be. It was different then.”
On WrestleMania 32 and the family legacy:
“For something like having my first WrestleMania, you really have to picture yourself there. Sometimes, I’ll be working out and I picture what it’s going to be like, how it’s going to feel, what I’m wearing, and to have a goal that some would say is unattainable, I kind of visualize it, so I’m getting goosebumps now just thinking about it because it seems so far away, but it’s not, and until that day comes, I won’t believe that it’s really happening.
The fact that my dad spent 40 years creating his legacy and now, I’m an extension of his legacy, it means a lot. I want to do it justice and make him proud. My dad always wanted to be the best, and his passion for the business alone and his fans, that’s what I want to carry on. When people see and watch me, I just want to know that they never left a show unhappy.”
Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.
