Great interview.

Interesting that she always thought Finlay was joking (This being 2002-03) when she'd come in and he'd tell her that she'd be doing things like the harcore match & street fight with Trish or the steel cage match with Lita. At the time, it must have been a bit of a shock that they were going to let them do that.

And, she confirms something that was discussed here after we posted one of the behind the scenes vids regarding the difference in the locker room then and how she figures it is, now, the closeness of the Golden Age Divas. I like how they've all stayed close after all these years, and how she made a point of plugging Trish's and Amy's current activities. If she and Trish actually do get them all together for a big reunion in Vegas, somebody better have a video camera. smile

Didn't know Molly taught her the Widow's Peak.

So, she came up with the sumo costume for tha Halloween match. She and Jillian stole that one, I thought.

U didn't know Molly taught her that?? I could have sworn I posted that fact here before. Molly did a lot for the division. I loved her.

I love Victoria so the interview was a great listen.

I also find it very cool how her and a lot of the 'golden age' divas are still best buddies. I was a little surprised she is still friends with Lena Yada but that is nice to know.

Her reaction to the hardcore matches/cage match was good to listen too because I don't recall knowing how she felt it was a joke. Again this is another person who says that the divas were told not to do certain moves. McCool/Melina etc already said that but some people tried to deny it [from WF].. So yeah 3+ people are saying they are held back move set wise and I believe them! LOL at Victoria really wanting one of them to get busted open in the cage and trying so hard.. Poor her all she got was a big bump. I wish wwe would get unpredictable again and have a good physical diva match next time they do the Raw Roulette Wheel..I want another cage match or better yet a ladder match!
