Former WWE star Carmella spoke with the New York Post on several topics, including how she pitched to be part of Pretty Deadly’s musical.
Carmella said, “I pitched to work with Pretty Deadly. I reached out to them first, and they loved the idea. They were all on board. We came up with ideas, pitches, and storylines. That’s when I was talking to the head writer about these ideas that we had. They were doing a musical at the time.”
On the idea for their musical:
“They were pitching this musical. It was going to bomb, and then I was going to show up, and I was so excited. I feel like it was a perfect mesh of all of our characters. I love working with characters. R-Truth. James Ellsworth. The more ridiculous, the better. They are so all about their character that I feel it would have worked so well.”
On what happened with the idea:
“Everyone was on board and really liked it. Who knows, maybe someday in the future. When I was talking with the writer, we were like, ‘Maybe I will be part of the musical. I’ve always wanted to be on Broadway. Can I be in the musical?’ He’s like, ‘Maybe. I don’t know with the filming if it will work out timing-wise.’ The ideas we were coming up with were insane, but to be part of a WWE musical, that would have been ridiculous, but Carmella would have thrived.”
