Going through this pandemic, one of the things I’m missing the most is the work WWE does with children’s hospitals around the world. When we meet kids who are battling cancer and spend time talking to them and their families, it’s one of the most fulfilling aspects of our jobs. I have such special memories of spending time with children and their parents to try and bring a little warmth and comfort to them during the most difficult times. I know it has made all the difference in my life, too. We walk into a hospital room with kids thanking us for coming to see them, but we leave thanking them for touching our lives in the way that they do.

September is a special month in WWE as WWE dedicates the whole month to supporting pediatric cancer research through Connor’s Cure, a foundation created by Stephanie McMahon and Paul “Triple H” Levesque.  Stephanie and Paul started Connor’s Cure after meeting a very special little boy named Connor Michalek, who had medulloblastoma, which is a form of brain cancer. Connor was only eight years old when he lost his battle to cancer, but he left a mark on our hearts in the most special way. His message of light and love lives on today through the Connor’s Cure Foundation and millions of dollars have been raised in his name to help other children fighting for their lives.

One of my favourite memories from our hospital visits was last year when I first met a little boy named Rocco at The Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh. Rocco was a little over two years old when myself, Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns and Finn Balor walked in to meet him.  His energy and excitement lit up the whole room when he saw us and he reminded me of the innocence only children can possess. Rocco, with his presence and smile that was so big, made us forget for a moment all that he was going through at only two years old. I’ll never forget going to high five him, which turned into him giving us his elbows instead. Everyone in the room, myself, Roman, Seth and Finn, affectionately touched elbows with him. After we left the room, we all said to each other what a special kid Rocco was and how we were all impressed with his bravery and resilience while battling cancer and being so young. Rocco definitely seemed wise beyond his years.

Natalya was featured on Taylor Wilde’s podcast Wilde on. The episode is about being Body Positive and called “Love Yourself” Taylor gathered stories from some of her Wrestling sisters one including Natalya that you can hear her story starting at the 9:51 mark, But i suggest listening to the entire podcast. It is something really good to hear from the people we look up to and how we all go though something no matter who we are. Its also a great listen for all girls and women. Thank you Taylor Wilde for having this great episode.

You can listen to the entire podcast below. 

I’m the worst at saying goodbyes, especially to people I love. I always tend to say “I’ll see you later” instead of the alternative.  Last week, Renee Young (Renee Paquette) announced that she is leaving WWE after eight incredible years with the company.

Renee is one of my closest friends and she’s also someone I deeply respect and admire in and out of work, as when I first met her, we just clicked and were two blonde Canadian girls who loved ketchup chips and Tim Hortons. Renee is easy to be around and easy to talk to. We could talk about anything and everything at any time and at any place and that’s a big part of why we hit it off instantly. I loved walking into the locker room and seeing Renee in a colourful sequined blazer and sharing my latest favourite shoe find with her. I could vent to her about anything and she always listened with remarkable patience. After a fast-paced day at work, it was the best meeting up with her after and grabbing a good meal (had to be French fries!) and reflecting on our day. I especially loved it when we would room together and have two hours to sleep before we had to catch a flight. We knew we had to get to bed but we had lots of important stuff to talk about first.

When I’d watch Renee on TV, I could clearly see she is such a natural. She made me want to be more like her when I’m speaking on TV because she speaks with ease and from the heart. Renee lit up the screen because she was born to do this. Whether it was backstage, in-ring interviews, hosting shows such as “Talking Smack,” hosting countless WWE community outreach programs, being cast in Total Divas, co-hosting a show with Gene Okerlund, or being the first female on the WWE Raw announce team, Renee’s contributions are extensive.

Maybe her most important role in WWE has been the fact that she’s been a huge force in our Women’s Evolution. Renee was the first female to ever commentate in Saudi Arabia. She helped guide me so much on my first match in Saudi Arabia and didn’t need to be in the ring with me to give me the confidence I needed to believe in myself. She was there with me in the unsung quiet moments when no one was around, guiding me with her “Renee Wisdom” that only she could give.

Natalya and Lana interrupted Mickie James as she was in the ring with Asuka letting her know that she’s coming for her title. Natalya tells Mickie that she really thinks she can just come back and jump the line to demand a title shot. Natalya then calls Mickie selfish, Lana then tells Mickie that she is failing to evolve and still having the same gear since 1998. Lana and Mickie start arguing but Asuka interrupts. Asuka says she’s ready for all of them. Natalya and Lana suddenly attack Mickie James and Asuka. Asuka ends up sending Natalya out the ring, Mickie James brawls with Lana and sends her to the apron. Asuka follows up and knocks Lana to the floor.

After a commercial break there is a match between Lana and Mickie James with Natalya at ringside. Mickie James wins the match with the mick kick.
