Maxxine Dupri continues to evolve and grow in the ring and has been putting on solid performances as of late. A lot of this can be attributed to the work she’s put in during training in the Dungeon. Natalya and TJ Wilson have helped many talents all over the world get better at the craft.
While speaking on Raw Recap, Dupri gives Natalya her flowers.
“It’s hard because Nattie has given so much to this business, right? Like she’s helped elevate so much talent. She’s given her life to the WWE universe and that’s amazing, and I don’t want to let her down. She’s allowing me into the dungeon. She’s helping me train. She’s giving me so much guidance. She’s texting me all day and making sure that I’m good and I’m ready to go, and then I’m sharing the locker room with Nikki Bella, who I’ve loved for years and I don’t want to embarrass, I don’t want to embarrass her. I don’t want to embarrass Chelsea, who’s going to bat for me. These are all people that I look up to and I want to make them proud. So it really, it just motivates me to work harder to earn their respect.” (Fightful/Transcript)
Dupri also discussed the love she’s developed for wrestling and what she does.
“I think both, right. It’s like you sign and you’re so excited and you’re like, okay, I’m doing it, and then you’re, you’re on the hamster wheel and you’re doing your best. You’re getting opportunities. You’re trying to make the most of everything, and you’re just- but you know, whatever you can. But I’m at this place now where I’m just, I’ve fallen so in love with this and it brings me so much joy. You know, whether I’m on Raw, on Netflix performing, which is insane, or if I’m in the dungeon learning and growing, whatever it is, it’s like, it fuels me. So I don’t know. I don’t know if there was like a special moment that it clicked. Like, this is all I can now eat, sleep, breathe. But it’s what we’re doing.” (Fightful/Transcript)
