– Sarah Stock, who wrestled as Sarita in TNA, is a guest trainer at the WWE Peformance Center this week. She’s had a few stints as a guest trainer. The Wrestling Observer (via Wrestlezone) reports that she is teaching the Mexican wrestling style to the future Divas. She appeared as one of the models in Tyler Breeze’s entrance at NXT Takeover.

– In an interview with WWE.com, Dana Brooke spoke about her transistion from modeling and bodybuilding to wrestling.

She said: “I have always been active and into sports my entire life, and I’ve always wanted to be a star and inspire others. It all started when I was a little girl wrestling with my father and he became my manager; “Mr. Perfect” and I would hold matches with my stuffed animals. Soon I started modeling at a young age for little tikes where I became a little camera hog and loved to pose. I did gymnastics for 18 years but had a major ankle surgery that set me back. In college, where I graduated with a Fashion Merch & Business & Bachelors of Science Degree, I was bored. I just couldn’t work a nine-to-five job. I then started bikini competitions in 2010, where it was about training and looking good, but I wanted more. I ended up falling in love with fitness and earned my IFBB Pro card. Eventually, WWE contacted me but I was a bit hesitant because I had never wrestled a day in my life. But my motto has always been, if you want something, you will make it work and achieve anything you put your mind to. I started my journey and it’s been the best journey of my life. I’ve learned a lot about myself and life in general.

She also talked about her rivalry with Charlotte, being the “total diva” and more.
