Holidead continues to live in the moment when it comes to her professional wrestling career because she understands it could all be gone tomorrow.
Major League Wrestling‘s Holidead was the latest guest on Taylor Wilde’s Wilde On podcast to discuss a wide variety of subjects. When asked about the serious injury she suffered in 2021, Holidead wouldn’t reveal exactly what it was but said [H/T: POST Wrestling] that it’s reoccurring and it was something that she was worried might put her on the shelf forever.
“Again, like I said, the end of last year, I had a really bad injury and it took me out for a while and it’s something that’s kind of reoccurring,” Holidead revealed. “It is something that it could put me on the shelf forever so it’s like, so I’m trying to make it through the year, not die. At the beginning of this year, I thought I might not be wrestling. The beginning of this year was very f*cking hard. I took like two, three months off and that was extremely hard financially, because I do actually pay my bills with wrestling so those of you indie wrestling haters out there who y’all think [wrestlers] make 40 bucks and a hotdog, some people do make a living off of this.
“I realized how quick my bank account — how much money I do make off wrestling, and mentally just not being able to be out there and do what I love and just having to sit, sit, sit and wait, like, that was a very big mind f*ck so when I got OK’d, one of the first things I did was go to Europe this year and Thunder Rosa was like, ‘Hey, I want you to relax and f*cking enjoy this time while you’re out there. Take in the moment’ so, that’s just something I’m trying to do with every opportunity I have and just all these platforms that I’m still provided,” she noted. “I’m just trying to enjoy the moment with the good people that are there and soak it all in because it could be gone tomorrow.”
