– During a recent interview with Wrestling Perspectives Podcast, Kylie Rae discussed how working as a heel is still a work in progress for her and how playing a babyface character comes easier for her. Below are some highlights (via WrestlingInc.com):
Kylie Rae on on how being a heel is a work in progress for her: “I swear it’s pure nerves and it comes out as like just smiling. I’m still trying to learn how to turn the heel switch on with it but it’s a work in progress because I want to be a bad guy.”
On how playing babyface is easier for her: “It was easier for me to start out as a babyface but then I got in such a comfort zone where I didn’t necessarily know how to be a heel. I really wanted to learn how to do it, especially without having to change my character.”
On her WWE Main Event match against Dana Brooke: “For [WWE] Main Event, it was against Dana Brooke and she’s a babyface, still is … it was a position where I was coming and I was kinda a babyface and they asked, ‘Can you be a heel?’ and I was like, ‘Yes.'”
As noted, Kylie Rae is pregnant and expecting her first child with longtime partner Isaias Velasquez.
