In an interview with Mike Jones of DC 101 to promote this Sunday’s WWE Hell in a Cell pay-per-view, WWE Divas Champion AJ Lee commented on the potential of a Divas Hell in a Cell match, future contenders for her WWE Divas Championship, what really made her love wrestling and more.
Highlights of the interview are below:
On the potential of Divas wrestling inside the Hell in a Cell structure: “I can tell you for sure that women like myself and Paige are down for it, and I think more than capable of hanging with the guys in that kind of scenario, because we’re insane and we like to jump off of stuff! I think if anyone could do it we could, but if it’s not in my generation, it needs to happen someday, and I really think women could handle that.”
On future contenders for the WWE Divas Championship: “I see so much potential in people who haven’t particularly gotten that opportunity yet, like Emma and Summer Rae and even Lana. I think they are interesting characters and women who have a lot of potential and I would love to something that’s vastly different with one of those girls. Just someone we haven’t seen yet get a chance.”
On what really made her love wrestling: “Anything with Eddie Guerrero, especially WrestleMania 20 because I was at that one. Just to see the confetti and him crying and holding the title. Anything that he was in I was drawn to. I liked having a character that wasn’t 100% good or 100% evil, he just rode that line.”
