Quotes from Paige

When I first came up in the wrestling business, there was a movie called 'The California Dolls' about a female tag team - girls who are struggling trying to make it in the wrestling world. I started out in a tag team, and my name was Britani Knight, and my dad named us after The California Dolls. We were called The Norfolk Dolls.

Everything I knew my entire life - like, literally, for 26 years - all I had known was pro wrestling, and for it to be ripped away from me, which is nobody's fault, but it is part of our business.

People who are not in the wrestling business don't understand the struggles that all of us have to go through to really try to make it.

I'm not a huge video game person. I used to always play wrestling video games growing up. My brother used to have all the games, so we would play together.

My mother is the toughest opponent. Many people think she would go easy on me, but that's not the case.

Emma gave me some of my favorite matches - the NXT Women's Tournament and then NXT ArRIVAL.

I always really enjoyed Edge's entrance theme. Also Stone Cold. WWE once asked me in an interview, if I had to change my entrance music, whose would I choose, and I said Edge. So they created a video of me using that song, and I was like, 'I'm in love.'

The great thing about WWE is the fact they are branching out and doing more brands. Having this just creates more opportunities for everybody, and I just want them all to get a chance. Especially in England. I know we have a lot of British superstars, but it's still a lot harder for Brits to come over here in America.

At 13, I knew where I wanted to be. I wanted to be in WWE.

When you think about a WWE Diva, you think of us girls in WWE, not, like, the girls that are in the indies, the girls in TNA or in other different companies. So yeah, the word 'Diva' means a lot to me.

I started traveling around the world by myself by the time I got to 14. I worked really hard because I knew what my goal was, which was to be in WWE.

WWE, I'm just full-on Paige, my in-ring character. 'Total Divas' is where I can completely be myself and be my lunatic, weird person.

WWE is like a big family, and you don't realise that until you step away from it and come back.

Hopefully, one day - I want to make this big goal and be in the WWE Hall of Fame one day.

I couldn't really get a grasp on wrestling at a young age. I knew it was what my parents did, and they fought people. It scared the crap out of me, so I thought, 'No, I can't do that. I'll get beaten up!'

I have traveled the world by myself.

I feel much better being in a heel role. I'm not very good at coming out smiling and acting like a good girl. It's harder to get fans to like you when you're trying to be nice.

I love karaoke.

I always sing Amy Winehouse's 'Valerie,' but also Kings Of Leon's 'Use Somebody.'

When I was in England, I did a lot of wrestling and moves. Over here, they were like, 'You don't need to do that much. Save your body. Become an entertainer rather than a wrestler.' And I wasn't used to wrestling on TV and in front of huge crowds, so it was a big adjustment.

Cheesecake and cookies is something I can't stay away from.

Any time I have a promo with him - and I like R-Truth, too - but I always have the best chemistry with Miz. We really don't stay on script perfectly. We kind of bounce off each other... He is the one I paid attention to when it came to promos. He helped me so much along the way with backstage segments.

I love Stone Cold. It's a weird obsession, and he should probably get a restraining order.

I'm not good at opening up with people.
