A YOUNG CAREER TAKES FLIGHT
Becoming a professional wrestler takes a lot of passion, dedication, and hard work. For many, it's a lifelong dream to step into the ring and become a star. For others, it's a chance to showcase their athletic ability and entertain the masses. But for one young wrestler, it was the inspiration of two women that set her on the path to becoming a professional wrestler.
When I was just 13 years old, I turned on the television and saw two women who would change my life forever. Their names were AJ Lee and Charlotte Flair, and they were professional wrestlers. As I watched them compete in the ring, I knew that I wanted to be a wrestler too.
I told my mom about my dream, and together we started searching for schools that would accept me. But almost every school we found required me to be at least 18 years old. It seemed like my dream would have to wait. But then we found one school that was willing to take me on, despite my young age. And so, at just 13 years old, I began my journey to become a professional wrestler.
It's been five years since that day, and I can hardly believe how far I've come. I was trained in the American style of wrestling by Bryce Benjamin and Missa Kate, and in the lucha libre style by Atomico and Golden Star. My first match was in April of 2018, and from that moment on, I knew that I had found my calling.
Competing in the ring is a beautiful experience. It's exhilarating and challenging, and it's where I feel most alive. Every time I step into the ring, I'm doing what I love and living out my dreams. And I hope that one day, I'll be able to travel the world doing what I love most.
My biggest accomplishment so far in my wrestling career was winning my first title at just 16 years old. It was an incredible moment, and one that I'll never forget. But I know that there are still so many more goals that I want to achieve.
To prepare for a match, I train physically as much as I can during the week. But I also know that mental preparation is just as important. Before I step into the ring, I take a moment to pray and center myself. It helps me to focus and stay calm, even in the midst of all the excitement.
My signature move is the Eat to Feet, but I like to call it the DollHouse Kick. It's a move that I've perfected over the years, and it's become a fan favorite.
Lofty Aspirations
Now that I'm a member of the Midget Wrestling Warriors, I have new goals that I'm working towards. I want to travel more with the team and earn my spot for a future chance at the Midget Wrestling Warriors Women's Championship. It won't be easy, but I know that with hard work and dedication, I can achieve anything I set my mind to.
Interests Outside of the Ring
Outside of professional wrestling, I'm just like any other high school senior. I'm a cheerleader and I sing in the choir as a soprano. After I graduate, I plan to attend college and study criminal justice. It's a career path that I'm passionate about, and I know that it will give me the opportunity to help others.
In my downtime, I love spending time with my family. We like to watch movies and play games together, and we also enjoy attending concerts. It's a way for me to relax and unwind after a long week of training and competing.
Becoming a professional wrestler is not for the faint of heart. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication, but it's worth it for the chance to live out your dreams. I'm grateful every day for the opportunity to compete in the ring and to inspire others to pursue their own passions. And I know that no matter what the future holds, I'll always be a wrestler at heart.
