Nair has become one of AEW’s familiar faces as part of the broadcast team, serving as a backstage interviewer for the promotion and being involved heavily with Athena and Billie Starkz on Ring Of Honor programming.
While speaking to Denise Salcedo in a new interview, Lexy Nair shared how Cody and Brandi Rhodes encouraged her to try backstage interviewing.
“So, my stepdad is Diamond Dallas Page. So, there’s that, and then he pretty much introduced me to the wrestling world. I had no prior knowledge of wrestling or what it was at all, and through him, I met Cody and Brandi Rhodes, and they just saw something in me. They were like, ‘hey, would you be interested in interviewing?’ I’m like, you guys are crazy. I had a totally different career path, and I just kind of pivoted and was like, you know what? The universe has put this in front of me. Let me just go with it. Let me just- there’s a reason why this is happening right now, and yeah, that’s when I just kind of, Cody was like, ‘you’ll be fine,’ and if anyone knows Cody, that is so him. You’ll do great. You’ll just figure it out, and yeah, I was so terrified (for) my very first interview I ever did for AEW. But yeah, I mean, it’s just, again, full circle moment. I’m here now and it’s crazy.”
Elsewhere in another recent interview, Renee Paquette spoke about Lexy’s growth as a backstage interviewer. You can read more about that here.
