Ignoring advice to learn how to act and be a character in WWE:
“I was like, ‘I’m just going to wrestle and I don’t need to do anything else. And, I would hear so much advice that there’s so much more to this business than that.

Now, I appreciate that part of it more than I ever did before. So, I miss the wrestling, but I know that there’s time for that.”
How she gets into her character as crazy, vengeful, and prone to breaking down into tears:
“I don’t think I can cry on cue; I just feel what’s happening. It’s real when it’s happening and I’m there and I’m her and I just kind of reac...

WWE in a kayfabe article noted Maddox has been“summoned to WWE Headquarters” in Stamford, Conn. to be questioned by a Board of Inquiry on Thursday morning. As first reported by WWE's Breaking News mobile alert service, Maddox was suspended for his controversial actions, which arguably cost Ryback a victory over WWE Champion CM Punk inside Hell in a Cell. But will there be additional, more severe punishment on the way for Maddox? Could the rookie official implicate that another party was involved in his choice to inject himself physically into the payperview main event?

For his part, the WWE Champion has flatout denied any culpability, proclaiming to the WWE Universe on Monday night's Raw that he didn't have anything to...
