Last night I made my official WWE Smackdown debut. My journey started 9 years ago. I remember the night before my first class - I was so nervous. I had done theatre for years and never felt anything close to this level of fear. I pulled up outside the school gym that morning and didn’t even want to get out of my car. My heart was thumping and my stomach was in knots. I was ready to turn back, and then I saw a feather on my windshield. A few months earlier, after years of battling illness, my grandmother passed away. She was the coolest, toughest woman I had ever met. She wore a mini skirt and rollers in her hair until the very end. They say feathers are a message from someone in heaven. It sounds silly, but in that moment I felt like my grandmother was with me, telling me to step through those doors and give my dreams a chance. It was the best decision I have ever made. I’ve had the time of my life travelling the world and creating magical stories that hopefully made you feel something. Now here we are, my Smackdown debut. I know you waited 5 months… I waited 9 years, and pretty much my whole life for this moment! But sadly, a few weeks before my debut, my lovely grandad passed away. I didn’t get to say goodbye. It was heavy in my heart. I didn’t tell anyone, I didn’t cancel anything. I just tried to push on as normal because I didn’t know how to handle the grief. I sat in the salon the next day getting my hair done for TV, trying to hold in tears, when my hairdresser found a feather in my hair. I truly have no idea how it got there. But I felt like it was my grandad saying hello. My new beautiful feathered fan entrance on Smackdown might seem like a burlesque and Great Gatsby dream, but it’s also so much more. Last night I felt like my grandparents, who are together again now, were holding my hands for one of the biggest moments in my life. In a country where I am all alone, following such crazy dreams..it’s easy to feel lonely and scared, but last night I had never felt so strong. They were with me in those wonderful feather fans. Thank you for supporting me in my dreams. Last night was for you. I love you and miss you so deeply🪽❤️
