So Melina tweeted last night that she did an interview with Between The Ropes, and I have now got a full recap of what was said! If you would like to download the audio yourself (which I suggest you do), click here!. Melina talks about FCW, her MNM gimmick, and her opinion of the current FCW Divas! PLEASE CREDIT MU FOR THIS RECAP!
- Melina is asked if she will compete in the bikini contest. She says she has brought a bikini, but has also brought ring gear. She’s thinking about calling out a challenge, and wants them to step up. She states that she feels good and wants to see what the FCW Divas can bring to the table.
- Brian asks about the rehab. Melina says it’s been really tough, and she got worried that she wasn’t getting better quick enough. They did wrestling therapy so she could feel OK about doing her signature wrestling moves. She first felt awkward, but then she saw the results.
- Melina is then asked about the difference of what she should do and what she did. She responds by saying its hard to gauge. Her doctor said that if her heart & body don’t feel comfortable doing something, she shouldn’t do it, but it was more of a fear. She had WWE doctors, and that her ACL healed perfectly. When she wakes up, she needs to warm up more than before, as she has less strength in her injured knee than in her other knee. She says she still has a bit to go, but when she was in the ring today, she felt good.
- Brian asks how it felt not being able to go out in front of an audience. She says she’s chomping at the bit, and that she’s worked so hard, that it would be a waste to throw it all away. she has 7 months of aggression to take out on doing something she loves so much. She talks about her rep because of a heel character, but that’s nothing like her- she just puts her heart into everything so that the fans can react and get into it. She wants to teach the FCW to fulfil their potential. Melina says that when the day comes that she can’t wrestle anymore, she wants people to have the same passion she has so that women’s wrestling can continue.
- She is asked about her heel character, and says it gave her a bad reputation. She says that you can never please everybody, and says that people don’t like her because of her MNM character. Whether they love or hate her, they can’t help but talk about her. She’s happy no matter what. Continue reading »
