Wren Sinclair & Kendal Grey On What Inspired Them To Get Into Wrestling

Wren Sinclair and Kendal Grey are rising stars in WWE NXT, and they recently discussed what inspired them to get into the business. Sinclair and Grey are currently allies on NXT, while Grey is also the WWE EVOLVE Women’s Champion who has a shot at the NXT Women’s Championship on the first WWE NXT of 2026.

The two joined Ethan Page in an NXT Q&A recently (per Rock N Co Wrestling) and were asked what made them want to get into wrestling. You can see the highlights below:

Grey On What Inspired Her To Get Into Wrestling:

“For me, I watched it as like a kid but I never thought that I could be a WWE superstar. So then I went off to college. I was an amateur wrestler in college. And then the NIL program with WWE kind of opened this opportunity up for me. But now that I’m in it, I can’t see myself doing anything else.”

Sinclair On What Inspired Her:

“Growing up, I used to watch the Hardy Boys and Lita. So that’s what got me into wrestling. But what actually made me want to become a wrestler, I feel like is someone that no one would expect. I actually saw Enzo Amore on an NXT live show in Texas. And just when he came out and he spoke and everyone spoke with him, I was like, ‘That is power. I need that kind of power.’ So then… I wanted that kind of power. So that is why I started wrestling, because I wanted to have people right in the palm of my hand.”
