First time we met at work, she told me it was ok to smile. That was over 6 years ago. I’ve watched her grow & thrive as a mom, host, producer, wife, student & now whatever she wants to do next.
She’s taught me to appreciate everything we have. My favorite person #ThankYouWIFE pic.twitter.com/U2wSHwGIoX

Not only is @MadisonRayne great inside the ring, she is one of the most creative and giving people I’ve ever worked with.
Madison wrote and produced the infamous WEDDING!!! She wrote a beautiful ending to one of my favourite storylines. 💛#ThankYouMadisonRayne pic.twitter.com/kYgH4xRAH5
