    Her sharing that she financially supports her mother and brother just made me really respect her beyond wrestling.

    This interviewer did a good job despite not being a huge wrestling fan
  • @bitwawesome7
    Mercedes modified the move that she accidentally injured Paige with. Instead of it being a double kick to the neck from the corner it’s now knees to the body from the corner.
  • Really enjoyed that interview a lot. Mercedes' story is amazing and she was so candid and personable here. Great stuff. Wish her nothing but the best.

    I forgot Sahsa or Mercedes is related to Snoop Dogg. But she looks like Warren G. She looks related to Warren G

  • I love this woman. She's the best. Been a fan of Mercedes since NXT & WWe as Sasha Banks. I'm proud of all of her accomplishments in her career. I will always love & support Mercedes. Her match with Bayley @ NXT Takeover BKN in 2015 made me a fan of her & Bayley forever.
