I can’t believe that the 2021 Royal Rumble has come and gone. What a whirlwind of a week, one that I’m still processing! WWE Hall of Famer Edge won the men’s Royal Rumble and Bianca Belair defeated 29 other women (including me!) to win the women’s Royal Rumble match. This year’s Rumble brought back so many memories. We saw the return of Jillian Hall and Victoria, two women who were in the locker room when I started in WWE. The WWE Universe loved hearing Jillian sing again as she made her way down to the ring. I couldn’t believe it when Jillian told me that it was only 10 months ago that she had her baby. Jillian looked great and was so excited to be back. The women of WWE’s past and present can do it all, including being a mom.
Victoria had been away from WWE for over a decade, and the WWE Universe welcomed her back with open arms as she made her way to the ring as entrant number 10 in the Royal Rumble. I was so happy to see her return, as it’s been a moment WWE fans have been anticipating for years. When I debuted in WWE in 2008, I remember Victoria being someone who really welcomed me into the women’s locker room with open arms. She was also my very first tag team partner in WWE and helped me a lot when I was the “new girl”. I always remembered how much she helped me when I was new and I’ve tried to pay that forward ever since. I also loved seeing how excited Victoria was when she was backstage. I could see that being back with her WWE family for the Royal Rumble meant so much to her. It also meant a lot to us.
Even though I competed against her in the Rumble, I was really happy for Bianca Belair’s win! It felt like the entire WWE Universe was celebrating Bianca’s victory together. Of course every woman competing in the Rumble wanted to win because it guarantees you a championship match at WrestleMania, but only one woman can. Bianca thanking her mom and dad after her big win was awesome and it reminded me of how humble she is and why hard work always pays off.
