We were like into it 71 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,280 Speaker 4: for a little bit and then got out of it. 72 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 4: It was there was a period of time where my 73 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 4: parents were like remodeling a part of our house, so 74 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,119 Speaker 4: we had to share room with my brother. We're all 75 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 4: like in bunk beds, and so he would play Nintendo 76 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 4: a lot. The room was really small, so that was 77 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 4: when we were really into it. So we'd all play 78 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 4: Donkey Kong. And then I started. I was in college 79 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 4: and I dated this pro snowboarder and they were always 80 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 4: playing Tony Hawk. Yes, although style games, So then I 81 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 4: started to play again. But we were never like huge gamers. 82 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 4: But like, if it's at a party and my people 83 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 4: are throwing out I'm like, I'll do it.

It actually sounds like we have very 86 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 2: similar video game habits as kids. I was very into 87 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 2: Nintendo I played Duck Hunt. Wasn't that so fun? 88 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 1: That? 89 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 4: It was a fun one. 90 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 2: I loved that and then got out of it for 91 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,119 Speaker 2: a few years, and then came back for Tony Hawk, 92 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 2: which I could play when I was not working. I 93 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:26,840 Speaker 2: could literally play for eight hours. It was like, Oh, 94 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 2: I literally spent a work day just playing Tony Hawk. 95 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 2: Also Tiger Woods PGA Tour that the golf game was amazing. 96 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 2: And then I got into Mortal Kombat too, and now. 97 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 4: It's all loved Mortal Kombat. 98 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, and now it's all back with the WWE game. 99 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 2: So we're just, yeah, it's very exciting, very cool. Well 100 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 2: let's start in Scottsdale, Arizona, where you two are from. 101 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 2: I know it's very close to an infamous college town, 102 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 2: Mill Avenue, lots of gated suburban homes, but you two 103 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 2: grew up on a completely different side of town. Somehow 104 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:07,160 Speaker 2: imagined Ali and aj Disney movie cow Bells. Were you too? 105 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 2: Real farmers? 106 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: So? 107 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 4: I mean we did come from a farming family, and 108 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 4: so my mom'side the family, they were all produced farmers, 109 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 4: and then my dad was a tree farmer. So yeah, 110 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 4: we were surrounded by farming, and you know, we my sister. 111 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 4: When we lived in Brawley, we really got into the 112 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 4: fields because I guess that's just what you did. Ye. 113 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 4: My dad would take us when we were in scottsil 114 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 4: to his tree farm. It was out in buck Guy. 115 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 4: We'd go with him a lot because it was kind 116 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,279 Speaker 4: of fun. We'd just run around and he did. He 117 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 4: wasn't nervous, like you knew. We could just make sure 118 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 4: we got back in for lunch. But I feel like 119 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 4: our biggest chore, the farming that we had to do 120 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:47,280 Speaker 4: was feed the horses. We bottle fed on house. Yeah, 121 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,480 Speaker 4: we'd muck so our type of farming. Her and I 122 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 4: we had to do the chores. So we didn't do 123 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 4: that stuff. Well, right, we do that before school, like 124 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 4: even like middle school. I just remember, like this is 125 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 4: so uncool, but it had to get done, and we did. 126 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,039 Speaker 4: We were big into riding horses for a while. I 127 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 4: just it was funny because when we first moved to Scottsdelle, 128 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 4: we came from a small town called Brawley, which is 129 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 4: outside of like two and a half hours outside of 130 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 4: San Diego. And here we are city girls riding our 131 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 4: horses and the alleys and I just remember it we 132 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 4: were just so we called it a city, but it 133 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 4: was nothing like a city, right, And I think Scott 134 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 4: Sell felt like what people consider in New York as 135 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 4: a city. We were like, this is such a crazy city. 136 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 4: But here we are riding our home everywhere and had 137 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 4: our farm, had a pig. But it was fun to 138 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 4: be raised and be surrounded by farmers, like we have 139 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 4: always really appreciated that atmosphere, those style of people, so 140 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:45,559 Speaker 4: it's been great. 141 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, so you'd have to do that sometimes before school. 142 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 2: So would you just get up and then okay, every 143 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 2: day and then roll out there you're getting dirty and sweaty, 144 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 2: and then and then go in and shower and get 145 00:07:57,520 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 2: ready for school. So what time would your day start? 146 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 4: I mean I feel like six am? Right, I mean yeah, 147 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 4: I was just doing them, especially in the winters how cold. Well, 148 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 4: and my parents would do it where each kid got 149 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 4: a week. Yeah, you're right. You have a brother, so 150 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 4: it'd be like Nicole's week, Breonna's week, JJ's week. Yeah. 151 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 4: They kind of sput up like that, but we'd also 152 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 4: help each other out. But you know what was funny, 153 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 4: I never mind the hot days. It was because sometimes 154 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 4: the desert can get freezing cold when we have to 155 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 4: go out there and it was so cold and I 156 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 4: would just be like shivering. But yeah, because we would 157 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 4: walk to school, so we had to make sure we 158 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 4: gave ourselves enough time to walk.

But but yeah, 329 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 4: I mean I look at my daughter at times I'm like, wow, 330 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 4: there could yeah love that because I mean, even though 331 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,919 Speaker 4: I'm one and done anyways, but then I didn't know 332 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 4: if I would be one and done. But I thought, oh, 333 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 4: if you could get two and one pregnancy, how amazing, right. 334 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:53,680 Speaker 2: Right, just have two kids one experience, Yeah, Taco Tuesday, Yeah, 335 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 2: two two for I always imagined that I would have 336 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 2: a boy and a girl. My mom, I'm my brother. 337 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 2: I have a brother, and so my aunt has boys 338 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 2: and girls. I was just like everyone around me, my 339 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,920 Speaker 2: best friend has a boy and a girl. Just thought 340 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:11,520 Speaker 2: that was going to be my future. And then when 341 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 2: I found out my second was a boy, I had 342 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 2: a real grieving process of like, oh, because I knew 343 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 2: I wanted to and no more so then I had 344 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:21,200 Speaker 2: to really kind of grieve, like, oh, I didn't realize 345 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 2: how much I was just assuming my future involved also 346 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 2: having a daughter. 347 00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 4: Yeah. 348 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,160 Speaker 2: Now I can't imagine it any other way. And I 349 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 2: love being a boy mom and it's the greatest. But 350 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 2: there's always that feeling at first when you're like, oh, 351 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:38,160 Speaker 2: the thing I thought I was going to have, I'm 352 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:39,439 Speaker 2: not going to have. And now there's a little bit 353 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 2: of a grieving process. 354 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I see that for sure, And especially because if 355 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 4: people do not have boys, they don't understand the boy energy. Oh, 356 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 4: like boy moms get a lot of credit. 357 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:54,439 Speaker 2: It is very confusing for parents of girls. They're like, 358 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,200 Speaker 2: oh oh oh they are they always like this. It's 359 00:18:58,200 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 2: like oh yeah, this starts at six a. 360 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,439 Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, wild yeah wild. 361 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:07,120 Speaker 2: I know. I remember walking into Adler's room, my first 362 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 2: walking into Adler's room and it barely being six am, 363 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 2: and I like turned on his light and I have this, 364 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:15,159 Speaker 2: you know, little gentle good morning song I sang to 365 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,400 Speaker 2: him every single morning since she was born. And in 366 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 2: the middle of my good morning song, he's like, I 367 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:28,200 Speaker 2: am hawks right right, okay, I do which this energy? 368 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 2: We are? We are hulk okay. 369 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 4: Am that explained. That is everything that is a boy. 370 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 4: That is how it goes. 371 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 2: And do you remember the maybe the worst part about 372 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 2: being twins in middle school or high school? 373 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,959 Speaker 4: I feel like, wow, she's so quick to answer. I know, 374 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 4: I do, I know, and you'll probably agree with me. 375 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:54,719 Speaker 4: But I feel like when you're a twin, you're constantly compared. Yeah, so, 376 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 4: which I guess helped us growing up because we never 377 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 4: mind being compared to anyone or anything, because our whole 378 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 4: lives has been that. But it like people almost thought 379 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,959 Speaker 4: we should be clones, like they would literally comparison, like, 380 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 4: so you guys are identical and be like yeah, they're like, no, 381 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,439 Speaker 4: you're not, because your nose is a little like this 382 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 4: and yours are like this, and we're like, oh my god, 383 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 4: cause I art. Yeah, but that would constantly be or 384 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 4: anything we did, it was like instead of just giving 385 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,440 Speaker 4: a good job or like recognizing it, it was like 386 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 4: a right away a comparison to your twin. Yeah, so 387 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 4: that it happened a lot, I felt like in middle 388 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 4: school and high school even actually now still does. But 389 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,919 Speaker 4: I'm always like, why just because we're twins, like we 390 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,360 Speaker 4: have to be identical and everything and everything we do 391 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:40,120 Speaker 4: and all of it. 392 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 2: It's just that's a really smart way of thinking about it. 393 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 2: That people it's really just showing their ignorance that they 394 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 2: don't understand what the identical versus fraternal twin means. It's 395 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:54,920 Speaker 2: it's just about the egg, not about the people being clones. 396 00:20:55,160 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 2: There's still individual people. They're just whether or not they 397 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:04,160 Speaker 2: were from one egg or that split or not. So yeah, 398 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,119 Speaker 2: it is really just showing their ignorance. But that is 399 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:07,399 Speaker 2: that's a good way of thinking about it, is that 400 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,199 Speaker 2: people think you're going to be a clone? What do 401 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:10,879 Speaker 2: you think, Nikki? 402 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 4: That's a good one. I feel like what but there's 403 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 4: something deep down. No, actually no, I loved being a twin. 404 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 2: Oh what's the best part about being a twin in 405 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 2: middle school in high school? 406 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,200 Speaker 4: I think having like when you're going through all those 407 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 4: crazy changes, you have someone to talk about it with 408 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 4: or be really open and honest with. Because I feel 409 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 4: like even at that time, you know, when girls were 410 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 4: going through puberty, because that's such a big time for 411 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 4: girls to go through it, sometimes you were embarrassed to 412 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 4: tell your friends, like I got my period and I'm 413 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:49,120 Speaker 4: only in sixth grade. So having her even I mean, 414 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 4: this is TMI, but even getting pubic hair so young, 415 00:21:57,040 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 4: not even in middle school yet, Like you know, I 416 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:03,200 Speaker 4: just remember you cover up around your friends, you get 417 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 4: embarrassed all those things. But that was like such a 418 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 4: plus having a girl identical twin. Yeah, we don't want 419 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 4: to be a girl identical twin. I five a girl, 420 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 4: but meaning, but that was like such a plus in 421 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 4: that and never going through some yeah let's have some 422 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:19,679 Speaker 4: new open up. We never experienced the first day of 423 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 4: school alone. Yeah, we all each other, going to birthday parties, 424 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,639 Speaker 4: like all those things that like at those awkward ages 425 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 4: when you're growing up, it's really nerve wrecking to yeah, 426 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 4: walk into those things. The confidence isn't like you don't 427 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 4: really have it yet. So we had each other, so 428 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 4: we walked in like all confident as we were just yeah, 429 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,120 Speaker 4: you know, I mean, you know, we would even break 430 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 4: up with each other's boyfriends. You know how you'd have 431 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 4: those two week boyfriends in the middle. 432 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:48,679 Speaker 2: Of course, yes, you barely talk to him. 433 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 4: You just would see him from a farm're like, yeah, 434 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:51,120 Speaker 4: that's my boy. 435 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 2: That's my boyfriend.

So we would 440 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:00,400 Speaker 4: each other. 441 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:03,200 Speaker 2: That is so cute, like over the phone. 442 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:08,160 Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, So she would like call and then break 443 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 4: up for me, and then I do it for her. 444 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 4: I felt.

Growing up. I literally only cared about school 458 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:53,440 Speaker 2: because it meant I could go to school and talk 459 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 2: to boys and passed to boys and love boy. I 460 00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:01,120 Speaker 2: just boy completely obsessed. Were you guys also boy crazy? 461 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:05,199 Speaker 2: I know you were very athletic.

But but it's you know, I think 711 00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:05,040 Speaker 4: there's a lot of good coming. I feel like Nicky 712 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,400 Speaker 4: and I will be back at TV. We keep pushing 713 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:09,120 Speaker 4: to get back there, but I think we're going to 714 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,880 Speaker 4: be there sooner than later. And I think twenty twenty 715 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:14,600 Speaker 4: six is going to be incredible for us in They're incredible. 716 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, there has truly never been a better time in 717 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:22,480 Speaker 2: my opinion for women's wrestling. It is I mean, I'm 718 00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:26,920 Speaker 2: such a fan of so many Riha, Ripley Live, Roquel Rodriguez, 719 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:31,080 Speaker 2: Charlotte Bianco, bell Air, Tiffy. I What do you think 720 00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 2: is the biggest difference backstage between now compared to the 721 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:36,399 Speaker 2: diva's era. 722 00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:40,279 Speaker 4: I mean, I guess I'll let you start on this, 723 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,560 Speaker 4: because you've been in that locker room, yeah, last year. 724 00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:46,719 Speaker 4: It's you know, there's definitely different energy there. And I 725 00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:51,160 Speaker 4: think the first is it's different for women because now 726 00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:56,399 Speaker 4: they're respected, So what they do is being honored, it's 727 00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 4: being respected. And I think that's the first thing. It 728 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:01,880 Speaker 4: was hard being a woman back then. Ye you weren't 729 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:04,719 Speaker 4: respected about being in a male dominated industry. You weren't 730 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,319 Speaker 4: respected for the effort you were putting in for what 731 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 4: you were doing, and it was hard for a lot 732 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:13,279 Speaker 4: of us women in so many ways. So that was 733 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:16,239 Speaker 4: my first thing I noticed, like, it's so great to 734 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:21,120 Speaker 4: be a woman now, doesn't matter how good you are, whatever, 735 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:23,239 Speaker 4: it is like you're backstage and no matter what, you 736 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:25,719 Speaker 4: are respected and you're treated equally as a man. And 737 00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:29,240 Speaker 4: I think that's been the biggest thing I've taken away. Also, 738 00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 4: these all these women are so amazing and so sweet. 739 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:36,719 Speaker 4: Not only are they just incredibly athletic in their own way, 740 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:40,760 Speaker 4: but they're just a great group of women. They truly 741 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,560 Speaker 4: support each other, They empower each other. They all want 742 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:45,919 Speaker 4: the best for each other. You know, obviously there's gonna 743 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 4: be times where you're dealing with TV time and they'll 744 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 4: be tension. But everything I've experienced, I'm like, wow, this 745 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 4: is like a red up fresh air. Yeah, yeah, just amazing. 746 00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:00,759 Speaker 4: But the last two shows, I will say this, I 747 00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 4: feel like Nick con has done a great job at 748 00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:10,640 Speaker 4: making the backstage better atmosphere. I really recognize that at 749 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 4: the Royal Rumble and the Raw right after, I go, oh, 750 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:17,320 Speaker 4: this is way different. This is professional. It feels different. 751 00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 4: So I have to say he's done a lot of 752 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:26,160 Speaker 4: good in that back page for just a professional, really comfortable, calm, 753 00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 4: safe atmosphere. And I love that. 754 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:30,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, great, I love that. 755 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:31,040 Speaker 1: Now. 756 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:33,360 Speaker 2: You know, you talked about that, you're still competing for 757 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 2: TV time, of course, but because women are more respected 758 00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:40,920 Speaker 2: and are getting more airtime, there's less of a reason 759 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 2: to have that scarcity mindset, and now the women are 760 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:48,839 Speaker 2: able to be to be the supportive you know, it's 761 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 2: like it fosters a better environment for everyone when we're like, 762 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:58,360 Speaker 2: there's room for everyone. Yes, if you come here prepared, ready, athletic, 763 00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:01,080 Speaker 2: and capable, we're all going to get our time. 764 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:04,960 Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, I'm so sure because it was hard. 765 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 4: I mean, we were in that era fighting for time too. 766 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:11,359 Speaker 4: There was one being told right, and then you were 767 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 4: getting paid per show, so you wanted to get on 768 00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:16,879 Speaker 4: that show to get a payday. And you're exactly right. 769 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:19,400 Speaker 4: Now we're so lucky. We could have three matches in 770 00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:22,319 Speaker 4: one night on each show, maybe four, we get three 771 00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:26,920 Speaker 4: stories going. I think WrestleMania. I feel like there's going 772 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:31,080 Speaker 4: to be a maybe not quite equal to the amount 773 00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 4: of men matches, but maybe I think we're going to 774 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:37,400 Speaker 4: get quite a few female matches each day, which honestly 775 00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:40,520 Speaker 4: there should be because I've been kicking ass all year. 776 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:44,319 Speaker 4: They've been they have heard so. But yeah, I think 777 00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:47,719 Speaker 4: you're exactly right. When there's more room for opportunity, we 778 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:49,719 Speaker 4: don't have to fight each other that way back him. 779 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:52,640 Speaker 4: You know, I saw this real and I really loved it. 780 00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:55,879 Speaker 4: This woman was I can't remember what island she was from, 781 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:57,799 Speaker 4: and she was on there but the moon had been 782 00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:00,440 Speaker 4: out but the sun was out, and she was just like, 783 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 4: look at this, Like the moon is patiently waiting for 784 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:07,040 Speaker 4: its time to shine. It's allowing the sun to shine, 785 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:10,120 Speaker 4: and it knows that when the sun goes down that's 786 00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:13,040 Speaker 4: its time. And then the sun patiently waits. She goes 787 00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:16,520 Speaker 4: into this beautiful thing, and I was like, it's so true, 788 00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 4: and you realize what the women now they do that 789 00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:21,839 Speaker 4: for each other. Yeah, everyone's time to shine, and they 790 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:25,839 Speaker 4: celebrate and support when it's not their time. And that's 791 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,920 Speaker 4: something different than I've ever experienced. But I was like, wow, 792 00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:33,080 Speaker 4: this is a really tight knit sister. It makes me 793 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 4: so proud like that women support each other like that. 794 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:39,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, so beautiful.
