She's just such an awesome person to have around. She's so genuine and real. She takes care of you. She looks at you in the eyes when you're talking to her like she cares. You know, one time I saw the makeup people spill bobby pins on accident, and she got on the floor and picked them all up! I was like, 'Wow, she's incredible!' But seeing her go out there and say the 'Welcome to WrestleMania'? To me, that was huge. That was like, 'Women can be in this position right now and can welcome the world to the biggest show in the world. At the biggest WrestleMania ever.' I feel insane that I'm a part of this at this time, at the hottest it's ever been. I do not take it for granted. I do not take it lightly.## And I've known Stephanie for a long time, see? And Brandy back there was really cool – I was sitting next to her as she's watching the main event. She's just like, tapping her leg and like doing stuff. I had a rubber band, and I was like, 'You got this, there's no me okay, you gonna be okay?'## It's a very comforting feeling in the back, and that makes this so much better." ## If you use any of the quotes above, please credit the source with a h/t and link back to Sacnilk for the transcription. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...
