The key to WWE's success and longevity is that they are, as modern and as relevant as the company may be in modern social media and platforms and contemporary distribution, the company is still built around old-school promotion. Who are these two fighters? Why are they wrestling? And why should I pay to see it?
I think it's just in my nature to irritate people and push things as far as I can. It's really benefited me in WWE.
Who would have ever thought that, within a couple months of getting into the WWE, that I'd be wrestling in the main event for the world championship? Then, nine months after getting here, actually being the world champion.
I worked with Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, Bray Wyatt. Those guys have come along and are doing very well now.
You have to have the ability to adapt. That's probably the single most important quality you need to have as a WWE Superstar.
People dream to be in the WWE, but my dream is to be the best in the WWE. They can have the money and fame. My dream is to become known as the greatest wrestler of all time.
If you're really good in the ring, there's no limits to what you can do in the WWE as a woman!
I'm hoping Big Cass gets a great singles' run and vice versa. We pull for each other in that regard.
'Survivor Series' is one of my favorite pay-per-views because I'm Smackdown strong: I bleed blue. I've been my most successful since being on SmackDown.
I didn't come over with a comfy sponsor that took care of my visa and paid me a good amount of money right away. I came over here with nothing, the little bit of money that I had saved up, and it was struggle and plight to get some recognition and then finally make it to the WWE.
I realized my dream and was proud to be a Superstar. I never won a title, but being hired by WWE and being a Superstar, to me, was like winning a championship.
I think I'm going to be successful in WWE.
I can look back now and say, 'Aw, that was a little dumb taking huge bumps onto concrete before a couple of hundred fans,' but if it wasn't for that attitude and that type of work ethic, I never would have gotten to WWE.
'WWE' Raw is the No. 1 sports-entertainment show in the world. If it starts to suffer, the rest of the sports-entertainment world starts to suffer.
To some people, being in the business only starts when you're in the WWE. So I guess for those people, I'm kind of an overnight sensation.
