What was your favorite look from your Runway cover shoot and why?

The Malan Breton black dress because it made me feel like I was the black swan from the ballet Swan Lake.

Do you attend any global fashion weeks or runway shows?

I have attended New York Fashion Week, London Fashion Week, Arab Fashion Week and L.A. Fashion Week. I absolutely love fashion – the art, the story, the emotion behind it reminds me so much of WWE and the shows we put on. Going to runway shows inspires me in so many ways and I have pulled a lot of inspiration in my wrestling gear from fashion shows and designers.

Who are your favorite red-carpet fashion designers?

I have so many; I guess it depends on what red carpet it is and what the vibe of the event and carpet is. A couple of my favorites for red carpets include, Charbel Zoe, Aadnevik, Ralph & Russo, Malan Breton, Rami Kadi, and Jeremy Scott. Ever since I was a little girl, Versace was my favorite designer and I dreamed of wearing a custom designed Versace dress on the red carpet. Now my dream is to wear Versace custom designed wrestling gear. I want to be the first person to really bring fashion into the WWE. We aren’t just athletes; we are also entertainers putting on one of the most entertaining shows in the world.
