That was a dream come true to me. First of all, we brought All That back and then having them come on, because I’m a huge WWE fan, you know what I mean? So that was cool. Me and my wife. We love the WWE and so when New Day came on, they were excited and I was just as excited as them. It was really funny because I remember I got to like knock a chair over and hit them, and it was just them looking at me like that. I was like, “Oh, I feel like I’m in the WWE. This is crazy. I’m about to wrestle.” So, yeah man, we had fun. We had a lot of fun.

Then like a month later I was out the door and everyone chopped. Sometimes it goes like that and they’re just real set on one thing. But that’s not forever, nothing is forever.”

- Get to know WWE superstar Shayna Baszler, a Sioux Falls native and 'Queen of Spades'
Shayna Baszler: I've never performed in Sioux Falls as a part of WWE.
I have been to shows that were in Sioux Falls while I've been signed with WWE. I was on NXT and I think like Raw was there and I just so happened to be home, like by coincidence. So I went to the show and said hi to everyone, but I wasn't on the show. None of the crowd saw me or anything.
But yeah it's gonna be fun. I mean, I'll have friends and family there, obviously. But you know, I hope Sioux Falls hasn't forgot about me. So we'll see what happens when I come out and, and hopefully it's good."
