Katana Chance comments on what she struggled with during her run with WWE

During an interview with the Lightweights podcast, former WWE star Katana Chance discussed her run with the company. Katana was asked about where she developed her in-ring style…

“So I always kind of felt like at the Performance Center, I mean, for the people that came from the independents, they were like, ‘Oh, like you being here is the dream.’ You know what I mean? Like, you’re able to be here. This is better than anything. But then some other people would say they got to kind of figure themselves out with the freedom of not having, you know, producers and TV and all of these, like, restrictions on them.

So I don’t know if I ever fully was able to really find myself in it. Because when you’re in there and then you’re getting on TV, you’re kind of put in these spots and you’re needed to be a specific thing right away.

You can try different things and try different characters, but like, if it’s decided kind of where they want you to be, you know, I just kind of wanted to do that and do the right thing and do whatever they needed. And I don’t know if I creatively enough pushed those boundaries to be like, well, even though this is what I’m supposed to do, I need to figure out how to do what I’m supposed to be.

So I think that was an ongoing struggle of mine throughout my journey, which is—I don’t know that I actually ever got to do that. You know what I mean? And fully find if I was myself or, like, whatever I wanted to be with no restrictions, like what it would have been. You know what I mean?” (quote courtesy of RingsideNews.com)
