I'm not here to put bruises on people's backs or to send them to the hospital. I'm here to put smiles on people's faces.

We've worked with Special Olympics Florida before, and I had so much fun doing that. It was really inspiring to meet all the athletes.
When I first started training, my trainer told me to stop smiling so much. It was just fun to me. I couldn't help it.
I want a one-on-one match with Sasha Banks. A Fatal Four-Way with Sasha, Becky Lynch, and Charlotte would also be great some day at a WrestleMania.
People want to see John Cena - they want to see all these guys - but I want people to buy tickets because they want to see the girls and they're looking forward to the Divas matches.
Wherever we go, NXT fans are extremely loud, and it's not like a normal WWE live event.
Honestly, I just want to wrestle! Like, I don't need to be in these crazy gimmick matches or always be working for the championship.
When you're in a tag match, like, you have this tag partner, and you make it known that you have this partner that you can work with.
Ever since I lost the Women's Championship to Askua, I feel like I've been targeted in a whole different way. People have tried to keep me down and keep me away from the title picture to make sure that I never get a chance again.
If I were to have a match with Lita, I would make that a championship ladder match.
I don't really sweat the petty things.
People want to see Ronda Rousey because she is an attraction.
I plan on headlining WrestleMania by WrestleMania 35.
I was really sensitive because people would say they thought I was a boy or call me a boy and stuff like that. I always had my hair back and, like I said, baggy clothes. So it was kind of sad. I didn't know what to do about it, and I didn't know what I was doing wrong because I was just being me.
Personally, I've struggled with a lot of doubt in myself at times.
I think I have done everything I can here in NXT, and I do want to test myself on the main roster.
It always sounds so cheesy when I say it, but whatever it is you want to do, just go for it. I don't care what it is: find a reputable school, or if you need to go to college or get the right training, just go do it and take little steps.
When I saw Daniel Bryan win the world title, that was the most incredible atmosphere, especially after Undertaker just losing his streak, which was such an awkward and weird feeling in the building. To feel the feeling of the fans once Daniel Bryan wins his title - it was... I can't even explain it.
I think NXT, as a whole, is kind of like a family, so we're not competitive. We're supportive.
Thinking about how far I've come, it's so crazy to me.
Asuka is just insane, and she has such a different background and things I've never seen before, so I'd say I'm a little bit more worried of Asuka because I don't know much about her.
It's hilarious to see guys wearing a headband with 'I'm a Hugger' on it.
I sweat a lot because I get really nervous.
This sounds like I'm a loser, but when I'm feeling down, or I need a bit of motivation, I do watch old NXT matches because they have some of my favourite memories as a performer in WWE.
To me, wrestling always comes first.
I loved 'WWF No Mercy' for the Nintendo 64. One of my favorites games was 'WCW Thunder.' I loved playing that game, and I loved being The Steiner Brothers. They were so cool, and they were some of the most powerful characters.
I never really look at other people; I just worry about myself.
I kind of felt like maybe I didn't have what it took to look like a supermodel and wear high heels all the time and my nails.
It's not like I don't like the term 'Diva.' It's what you make of it.
Honestly, it's an insane, weird connection that I really feel with fans instantly when I come out, because I'm still very much a fan myself, and I still can't believe that I get to do this every single day.
I played everything. I played volleyball, did track, cross-country, but basketball was my main sport, my main focus.
I got to work with Asuka, who is amazing.
I would really like to go to Mexico.
I've always tried to be a leader.
Making my family, friends, and close peers proud of me is the most important thing.
Social media is so huge.
With the likes of Rey Mysterio back in WWE, I find myself watching him and feeling inspired and that I need to get better and get to that next level.
Bayley is a dream chaser. She's grown up watching the product, wrestling, WWE, everything. She knows everyone, from top to bottom, all the history. She's been motivated since she was 10-years-old and is finally here, trying to pursue the dream, live the dream to the fullest.
When I make my entrance to the ring or give someone a high-five, I want them to feel happy and always remember that moment.
Growing up watching WWE, they used to have bra-and-panties matches or pillow fights, and that's why my mom didn't want me to watch wrestling. But when my parents divorced, I was able to watch wrestling again, and that's when I started to really get into wrestlers like Ivory.
Paige is someone who is very close to me - ya know, outside of the ring - she helped me when I first got to NXT.
You have a goal in life, and to achieve what you want, you've got to do what you've got to do.
I loved The Rock. He was my favorite for a long time.
Triple H really prepares everybody for WWE in everything we do in NXT, and everything we do in the performance center is to prepare us for WWE.
Any time I get to wrestle Sasha, I always want to do it.
I'd like to think I'm ambitious, and I like proving people wrong and surprising people.
This might sound bad, but I really want to work with Eva Marie, just because it seems like that's what people want.
It's just insane because, as a longtime WWE fan, I still have all of my action figures in storage. Now to have my own, and to see my nephews play with them, to see kids tweet me pictures with them, and to see people are actually going out of their way searching all of these stores trying to find them, it's really cool and humbling.
It's always a lot of fun to get to interact with people and meet different fans.
Parents will often thank me for being a good role model for their kids or tell me, "You'll never understand how much you mean to my daughter", so then I feel I don't want to let down the parents, either.
