Blake Monroe says she did question herself while waiting to make her WWE main roster in-ring debut: “I love to work. I love to be out in front of the crowd. I love to win people over, and I can't do that if I'm not out there. So I was chomping at the bit for five months dying to get out there, and I know better than anyone else that timing is everything. I've achieved things in my career that would not have happened if I didn't fail 10 times before and that's so many different things, big and small. So I knew in my heart, timing is everything, but it does get to a point months in where you're thinking, ‘Alright, I train, I go to the gym every day, I dress like a million bucks, I have my character, I have ideas. I want to be out there. I see other girls I think I could be better than them. I think if I had the shots they had and the opportunities they had, I would have done more with it.’ There is that natural hunger and desire, and it can get to a point where you question yourself and think, ‘Why is this not happening for me?’ But ultimately, it's such a huge machine, there's so many moving parts. There’s unpredictable factors like injuries and other things that shift around. For me, it was just every single week turning up and saying, ‘I'm ready for this. Here's 20 different things I want to do on the show until one of them sticks,’ and it did. Now I feel like I'm on the show and you can't ignore me. You cannot keep me in the back for another week. You cannot look at me and my peers and not use me now. I did have moments where I questioned myself, so let that be a lesson to everyone out there. Even The Glamour questions herself, but I remembered who I am, what I did to get here, and I just kept working harder.” (@BustedOpenRadio)

“I haven't heard a reaction quite like that because the very funny thing about that reaction if you listen to it back, it's the pitch that gets you. It's like a different noise that I've never really heard, — It's like they're all saying, ‘Yeah’ at the same time. The pop doesn't start with an H, it starts with a Y. You know what I mean?” - Sami Zayn on the pop he got at the 2023 Royal Rumble (@ChrisVanVliet)
