“I'm on the road five days a week in a different city every day.”

“There is a big difference between performing in WWE before thousands of people in an arena and acting in a scene with a camera close-up on your face.”

“Being offered the role in the Jackie Chan film was amazing. I got to do a fight scene with Jackie Chan.”

“I think being a WWE Diva is a tough job; there's lots we do that's not seen on television, constantly working and trying to better ourselves.”

“My parents never really pushed me, but I was so hard on myself. I would say I had some perfectionist quality, to a fault.”

“I was a huge Jackie Chan fan growing up.”

“I think I just need to be myself. I think that's what this 'Diva Search' competition is all about.”

“The Great Khali is incredible. He is an international superstar and a movie star too.”

“Kids have to understand that they have control. Not their parents, not the principal, not the president of the U.S. It starts with them and it ends with them. To end this epidemic of bullying they have to standup for one another.”

“When I started working with Maryse is when I really felt like people can start to see what I stand for and who I am.”

“I was a wrestler and now I teach jiu-jitsu, but they're obviously different in many ways. However, they do kind of translate.”

“It's really important to take your own personal safety into your own hands.”

“WWE wants women who are confident and can handle everything that being a WWE Diva comes with like lots of travel and being tough.”

“I look up to Divas like Trish Stratus and Lita. They are very beautiful women and they are bad. They are strong and great competitors who can handle themselves.”

“I always try different things to stay in shape whether it is dancing or Jiu-Jitsu or training weights in the gym. I try to do a little bit of everything.”

“The one thing that I always encourage women who want to be WWE Divas to do is have something you are passionate about. For me it was Jiu-Jitsu and martial arts. For some people it's soccer. Whatever it is, it gives you confidence and that will translate.”

“Where the women's division is now, if you had told me when I was there that women were gonna headline 'WrestleMania,' I would have said, 'Get out of here. That's never gonna happen.'”

“It's easy to say standup for yourself. The problem is if you don't feel like you're physically capable of handling the repercussions of that, especially at a young age, it's hard to do that.”

“I wanted this title to matter, I wanted women's wrestling to matter.”

“I always try to put my best foot forward both inside and outside the ring.”
