Blake Monroe: “I Came To WWE For The Challenge”
Monroe opened up about her journey to WWE.
There’s a new interview with Blake Monroe that was pushed out by Justin Dhillon of The Wrestling Classic. It is coming up on a full year since Monroe’s WWE debut, and she stated that she joined the company to challenge herself.
While giving her comments, Monroe gave props to her opponent at NXT Vengeance Day, Jaida Parker.
“Well, as you can see, it’s challenging me in a lot of ways but, I came to WWE for the challenge. I came because I felt like everything I’ve done in my career, I’ve given my everything to and I feel like in a sense, I completed it and I left with my heart full. With WWE, the women’s division is so deep. We have three brands, we have so many championships. We have so many women from different backgrounds so, right now I’m in NXT. There are anything from influencers to gold medalist Olympians coming up so, you have such a broad spectrum and everybody has something different and the one thing I will say about Jaida (Parker) is she has an attitude I have never seen before. She has a charisma and an energy that I feel in that ring, since coming to NXT, that’s the most I’ve felt it. That crowd gets behind her and everything she says, she truly believes and I respect that. So, it’s very exciting. It’s definitely a challenge but it’s making me elevate different levels of my game. I come from independent wrestling, I come from Japan, I’ve traveled the world. I wasn’t a D1 athlete, I didn’t train like that, so, there’s something I could learn from them. There’s a lot they can learn from me, and I think mixing that up is why NXT is such a chaotic and exciting show every Tuesday.”
Monroe and Parker are set to clash in a Street Fight at the Vengeance Day PLE on March 7th.
