ROH star Velvet Sky spoke to Wrestling Epicenter's Interactive Wrestling Radio for an interview recently. You can see the full discussion at this link, and submitted highlights below.
How ROH and the Allure got Skid Row to do their theme music:
"It is pretty cool. Myself and Bully Ray are friends with one of the band members. Mostly Bully Ray but I've gotten to know him as well. They're huge wrestling fans, those guys. So, when we reached out to those guys, "Hey, there's this cool opportunity. Do you want to do our theme music?" They were, like, stoked that we asked them. That is how that came together. We are so excited to have Skid Row! I love the 80's! I'm a child of the 80's! Anything from the 80's that can come across my plate modern day, I'm all for it! We're so happy with our entrance music. It is called "Get Familiar." What better group than Skid Row to do it?" She continues, "I feel the 80's were the golden era of everything! Even people! Even society was better back then."
On the Allure being planned for a while:
"That is true. A cool little story - I was at a Smashing Pumpkins concert in Madison Square Garden. At the concert, I received a text message from someone in Ring of Honor kind of opening up the ways of communication and kind of telling me what their vision was or the 3 of us as far as how they wanted us to come together and possibly make our debut in April at Madison Square Garden. I was like, "Oh my Gosh, am I reading this right?" So, here I am in Madison Square Garden looking at the Smashing Pumpkins perform and I'm looking at the arena in a whole new light thinking, if this goes well, I could be making my debut in this arena in a few short months! So, it was kind of cool how this came together as I was sitting in Madison Square Garden watching someone else perform thinking this would be where I make my debut. So, it was like it was meant to be! So, this was in the works for a long time as far as us coming together. We kind of just had to fine-tune everything. We are having the time of our lives right now. I couldn't ask for a better group of girls to come together!"
