WWE NXT star Bayley recently appeared on talkSPORT’s “Gorilla Position” podcast to promote the upcoming WWE NXT tour of The UK and below are some interview highlights:
On Hugo Knox and Nikki Storm returning to The UK:
“Hugo’s been here maybe two years, and he’s been working really hard. He just has a cool charisma about him that we only get to see here in Florida shows. I’m really excited to see him be able to go home, I’m sure he’ll have friends and family there. I think Nikki Storm also, she’ll be around. She said she’ll be about three hours away from home and everything so it’s going to be really cool to see.”
On Charlotte’s WWE main roster success:
“I think she’s doing an amazing job, it’s been really cool to watch her grow because I was in FCW (Florida Championship Wrestling) for her first match and NXT TV for her first match with her dad in her corner, so to see how far she’s come to be able to be like, ‘I don’t need you anymore’, and knowing she’s going to be on her own now, I’m excited to see what her next move will be. I think she’s doing a really great job, she’s been put in this position to carry on her legacy and name, I know it’s so much pressure but she’s doing a great job. If I were to make it up to the main roster sometime soon I think she’d be a perfect person to target!”
Who does she want to face on the main roster?:
“Nattie is one of them. I’ve had plenty of matches with her but I’ve only been able to team with her, I’ve never been able to have a match one-on-one against her. That’s one of the matches I’ve always wanted and she’s kind of been saying the same thing for a while since she was in NXT for a little bit. I remember watching one of her matches from the independents when she was like, an ECCW (Elite Canadian Championship Wrestling) SuperGirls Champion against Ivory. One day I want to have at least one match against her. Nikki Bella as well, when she comes back from her surgery and everything. She’s the longest reigning Divas Champion, so I feel like she’s someone I can learn from. I know we would have a lot of fun in a match together.”
Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.
