9. Describe a typical day of wrestling training for you? What is most important and what are the things you train on most?

I think it's fantastic and there should be more women in the business. There are people who I've spoken to who say 'Don't you have to be skinny to be a female wrestler?' Well, no. It should go by their ability in the ring, not whether they're 'Playboy' material.
