I wasn't sure what I was getting into when I signed on to work with a wrestler.

I was an amateur wrestler, which I loved. It was my passion, but I started really late; I was a junior in high school when I began.

Being a pro wrestler can be kind of difficult sometimes. We have a perception about what we do - and I totally understand the perception, because we're a weekly episodic program, and we're having fun all the time, so people think that's kind of the most talented thing I could do.

After watching wrestling for 20 years, I thought I had enough confidence to do it. There were no wrestling schools at the time.

Being a wrestler is like walking on the treadmill of life. You get off it and it just keeps going.

At one time, I wanted to be a WWE wrestler. I still do. I want to go in the ring once and mess around and jump off the ropes and do a Stone Cold stunt.

When I was really little, I wanted to be a wrestler so I could be like the girls I looked up to. My brother then told me that 'You don't want to be like your idols; you want to grow up and be better than them.' To this day, that's the best piece of advice I've ever gotten.

I think I was given a gift to wrestle. And I think when I came back, I had a much better appreciation of that. And I believe the way I went about doing it made me better at it. I didn't identify myself with the job as I did so much in the '90s. In the '90s, I didn't know who I was other than 'the wrestler.'

When I was a kid, I wanted to be either a rock star or a wrestler.
