Maria Menounos Wants to Get Back in a WWE Ring, Talks Beth Phoenix’s Hall of Fame Induction
– Maria Menounos spoke with TV Insider for a new interview about her love of WWE. Some highlights are below:
On almost inducting Beth Phoenix into the WWE Hall of Fame: “I was honored to be there for Beth, and I was honored knowing she and I shared a match at WrestleMania. I can’t believe I can say that out loud. I posted my final pin on her on Instagram. That was so surreal. She is one of the greatest of all time, and she let me pin her. She is incredible. When Beth got the call about her induction the only two people she initially told was Natalya and I. I just felt so honored.”
On potentially getting into the ring again: “Always, I always want to get in the ring. Although Keven [Undergaro] and I have been trying to do the baby thing for a little while. At some point, if it doesn’t work, then maybe I’ll be back. The girls are so good today. It’s so hard to imagine jumping back in, but I would love it. Being in there is one of my proudest accomplishments.”
On the growth of the WWE women’s division: “It really is incredible. I remember going to WrestleMania, and it was such a big deal to be highlighted. Now you are seeing these women up on the marquee. It’s super awesome…I’m a fan of everyone. I love Bayley’s story. I’m super obsessed with her right now. It’s hard to pick one favorite out though. They are all so amazing. I do think Bayley is adorable.”
