There were many great moments in WWE, but the most special was to win the 'Royal Rumble' of 40 wrestlers.
One thing I've learned from years of working in WWE is that the road to WrestleMania always starts at the Royal Rumble. That's why it's so important to win the Rumble: because it's your chance to secure a championship match at WWE's biggest event of the year - WrestleMania.
There are so many things I'm so proud of: if we're talking just in-ring stuff, participating in the first-ever women's royal rumble. I was so grateful to be a part of history. I never thought there would be an all-women's royal rumble.
I know Vince made the call for Roman Reigns to win the Royal Rumble and be the guy. We know that much. I don't know what knucklehead didn't say to Vince that maybe we shouldn't put Daniel Bryan in the Royal Rumble.
The Royal Rumble is rich with history and one of the most popular events in WWE history.
There are good wrestlers, great wrestlers, and special wrestlers.
This is the deal: You win the Royal Rumble match, you go to main event WrestleMania. That's the process.
The most important thing in the Royal Rumble is saving as much energy as you can. The guy who's going to win is usually going to be the guy who can defend himself the longest.
The great Muhammad Ali used to have that phrase where he would say: 'Rumble young man, rumble' and 'I'm so pretty I'm ready to rumble.' I kind of just fine tuned it to 'Let's get ready to rumble.'
I'm a four-time champion. The second female to ever compete in the Royal Rumble, amongst many, many other accolades.
There are only so many wrestlers that can actually look and act the part, and do whatever they have to do in WWE, and that's a lesson to be learnt for a lot of wrestlers, you need to look the part. If you don't, there is very little chance of you making it here.
My dream is to leave this business on my own terms, and if it were my terms, I would love to do the Royal Rumble. I would love to do Wrestle Mania in New Orleans, because I had so many matches there over the years working for Mid-South. I was in the ring with Muhammad Ali in the Superdome. To close it there would be great.
To win the Royal Rumble, you don't want to go over the top rope, obviously. But game-play-wise, hopefully you draw a later number.
The Royal Rumble is very difficult because, obviously, there are 30 people, and there are many superstars in it.
Any type of Royal Rumble or battle royal I always look forward to because I usually get to do some pretty cool things.
For special wrestlers, there's somewhere else to go - as long as you're not brainwashed by that WWE mentality. There's other worlds out there; it's OK to switch around.
I'm always talking about how representation is such an important thing - it's not just a request, it's a requirement - it needs to happen. So, to be a part of representation and to go down in the history books as the first African-American woman to win, and the second African-American to win the Royal Rumble is an honor.
