When I finally held that championship, I thought about the woman who had sat in that same building three years before, wondering what her future would look like.
I wish I could go back and tell her what was waiting.
One of the things that touched me most happened afterward. When I came through the curtain, other wrestlers were coming up to congratulate me and tell me how much they loved the match. I was still full of adrenaline and hadn’t really processed what had happened, so hearing that from people who I respect in this business meant so much.
