"At this point I have no interest in returning to wrestling. I am pursuing my acting career. But I never say never. I enjoyed the three years I was in the wrestling industry"
About this Quote
The subtext is about managing narrative in public. Wrestling and acting are both performance industries with their own hierarchies, gatekeepers, and stigma. Saying she has “no interest” in returning draws a clean boundary for casting and branding: she’s not dabbling, not waiting for a call from the ring. Yet “never say never” is the classic pressure valve for fans and promoters. It acknowledges the audience’s nostalgia and the industry’s habit of resurrecting names, without promising anything that could later be used against her.
“I enjoyed the three years” is a graceful pivot from refusal to gratitude. It pre-empts the assumption that leaving equals resentment or failure, and it protects her from the gendered trap placed on women who exit male-dominated spectacle: either you loved it uncritically, or you were “too good” for it. She opts for a third posture: appreciative, forward-facing, and professionally pragmatic. The intent isn’t confession; it’s positioning.
