Kaitlyn (Celeste Bonin) participated in the third season of WWE NXT in 2010, and she recently shared her feelings about discovering she was joining the show.
Kaitlyn participated in the all-female season of NXT and discussed her reaction to being selected for the competition during her appearance on “The A2theK Wrestling Show.”
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On finding out she had been slated for the show: “It was weeks that I had been there before I got that call. And so the first reaction that came out of me was tears. I cried when I got the phone call. It was just so much emotion, so much excitement. I was also terrified. I was just like, ‘I’m not ready. I don’t know the first thing about wrestling. I just got here.’ I never wrestled a match, didn’t even have a pair of wrestling boots. And so it was a lot all at once.”
On her development in the early years of her WWE career: “The whole entire time I was in WWE, especially in the beginning, was incredibly defining for me as a person. I always attribute so much of who I am today to that very transformational timeframe.”
During a recent appearance on the “Cheap Heat with Peter Rosenberg” podcast, Rey Mysterio commented on a potential reunion with his son, Dominik Mysterio. The WWE Hall of Famer said,
“That’s something that, as a father, they would always love to have with their kids, to be able to reconnect and end off how you started, on the good side. I don’t know if that’s going to happen. Over the years, people change, sometimes for good and sometimes for bad. Hopefully, one day, Dom can see the bright side of being on the Mysterio side and being family overall. I think it’s going to be very hard.”
