ORLANDO, Fla. – There is still something to be said for being able to reach a dream. In an age of compromise filled with hardships and hurdles; mountain after endless mountain; realizing your greatest desire is an honor beyond words. Nevertheless, WWE.com went on a search for those words, catching up with several Superstars preparing for WrestleMania, some for the first time, others after a long road back.
Being asked about her first appearance on The Grandest Stage of Them All, Women’s Champion Beth Phoenix showed an uncharacteristic soft side. Taking a moment to pause before answering, she explained, “It’s a really emotional time for me … winning the Women’s Championship was one thing, but to walk into WrestleMania wearing the gold, that’s probably the most highly anticipated moment of my life.”
However, her change of attitude was short-lived. When asked what she thought of her BunnyMania opponents, her arrogance quickly returned. Her face went cold as she commented simply, “I’m looking to make my WrestleMania record perfect, and I’m going to start on March 30.” If The Glamazon’s record leading to the Citrus Bowl is any indication, she is sure to reach her goal.
Whether you are walking down that aisle for the first time, or after you thought you might not walk down it again, WrestleMania is truly the stuff that dreams are made of.
