– Eva Marie recently spoke with CraveOnline to promote WWE Total Divas and WrestleMania 32. The full interview is at this link. Below are highlights:
CraveOnline: Letโs talk a little bit about NXT. You have a powerhouse tag partner in Nia Jax. How do you feel about that partnership and how did that come about?
Eva Marie: I think weโre a dominant tag team. Thereโs nothing really like that on the main roster or in NXT. It was weird how it came about because my first match back on live events in NXT, was with her. I think it was on accident. It was a random pairing because I had just started back wrestling. We had to tag together and she and I were like, โDamn. I like this. This can work.โ Then the writers and producers saw it and ran with it and Iโm happy they did. I love her and we get along very well and have a lot of the same interests. Sheโs extremely hard working and we push each other. Thereโs nothing like being able to work with someone you enjoy and brings out the best in you.
CraveOnline: You get a lot of heat from those NXT crowds. How does it feel when youโre about to walk out in front of that small arena and be greeted with a chorus of boos? Is it a rush at this point?
Eva Marie: Yes! 100 percent. Iโve said this before but the last thing you want as an entertainer or athlete, you donโt want to walk out there and be greeted with silence and hear crickets and see people get up to go to the restroom. Before I go out there and my music hits and I immediately hear the reaction, I feed off of it. It makes me put a little more pep in my step and walk out there with extra swag.
CraveOnline: Whatโs your schedule like for WrestleMania week?
Eva Marie: Last night was I was in Philly and now Iโm in Boston. This is the first time Iโve been back at TVs in nine months so thatโs extremely exciting. With WrestleMania, I have some exciting things coming up and Iโll be all over the place because Iโll be doing a little bit of double-duty. Iโll be wrestling with NXT too so Iโll definitely be giving everyone a little bit of red.
