Lash Legend addresses her call-up to the WWE main roster from NXT

During an interview with Denise Salcedo, WWE NXT star Lash Legend addressed her call-up to the WWE main roster from NXT…

“Honestly, the past year I’ve been knowing that… I’ve just been having a feeling of knowing in my gut since we had the storyline around this time last year, honestly, with the tag division. I’ve just known since then, ‘okay, surely, surely I should be up there soon. And so I’ve just been very optimistic. It wasn’t a matter of if, it was a matter of when. I was very happy, though, when it officially did happen.”

“I’m very grateful. I’ve had a lot of great support, like I’ve just had a great support system. Obviously my man [Trick] is here, he understands the business as well and he’s been super supportive. And having the girls on the main roster being so supportive even though I wasn’t, like, officially on there. Like, Nia [Jax]’s been supportive, Bianca Belair, Naomi. Like these girls have been so nice and uplifting me. And Bianca was just always like, ‘It’s going to happen, it’s going to happen.’ I’m just grateful for that, honestly. I feel like a lot of these women have me a lot of hope. And then when [getting called up] officially happened, just having all the support and love, it was very nice to see.”

“I was there for five years and it was a lot of different opportunities, some special moments, highs and lows. I’m just grateful. I’m grateful for every single thing I endured at NXT. I’m grateful for all the relationships I have with the coaches, with Shawn Michaels, just everybody. It’s helped me. I think the reason why I can go [to the SmackDown roster] right now is because of everything I learned during that time. So even if I felt like, okay, I was supposed to be up a year ago, if that was the case? Like, no, I’m grateful that I was there as long as I was because I kept learning, kept learning, and it literally prepared me for where I am right now.” (quotes courtesy of F4WOnline.com)
