Carmella Doesn’t Want to Be Both Cheered and Hated, Talks WWE 2K19 Rating

– Carmella spoke with TV Insider for a new interview discussing the women’s evolution, WWE 2K19 and more. Highlights are below:

On her WWE 2K19 rating: “First off can we talk about how I’m an 80 in the game? That’s so cool! I thought maybe I’d get 47 or something. I didn’t know what I would have, but it’s just so crazy. Even being here in the Performance Center where I would think where I wanted my career to go, where I wanted it to be and where I wanted it to end up.”

On her rise to the top of the Smackdown women’s division: “Never in a million years would I expect it to be where it is right now. Not that I didn’t want it. It’s just surreal that I was the first Ms. Money in the Bank. I was champion. I beat Asuka twice. I beat Charlotte twice. When I was here if I told people, I would be doing this, people would laugh. They’d probably say, ‘Yeah right. Carmella?’ But I did it baby.”

On being a heel: “I know my role as a bad guy is to get everyone to hate me. If I try to act cool and do things that get a positive reaction, then I’m not doing anything for the person I’m in the ring with. I don’t want to be somewhat cheered and somewhat hated. I went out there wanting people to hate me, and I’m going to do everything I possibly can to get everyone to do that. I just feel it’s important to do what’s right and not necessarily what is right for you but right for everybody.”

On the women’s evolution: “To know that we’re in the middle of the women’s revolution. The first-ever women’s Royal Rumble. The first-ever women’s Money in the Bank and all these other first ever things. And knowing my name will always go down in history, it’s so cool.”
