Former WWE star Kelly Kelly recently appeared on an episode of Insight With Chris Van Vliet, where she talked about a number of topics including her exhibitionist gimmick in ECW.
Kelly said, “Never in a million years [would the gimmick work in 2024] and it’s so wild to think that’s how I started… We [she and Alicia Fox] literally had no furniture. I had a bed. She had a bed. It was two college kids just living together, eating Ramen Noodles.”
On being called up to ECW and asked if she had dancing experience:
“Paul [Heyman] called me… ‘Well, we’re gonna teach you.’”
On her debut with the company:
“I just started dancing and [it was] so bad… It took me twenty minutes to get my bra off. So embarrassing!… That was the beginning, and then the next week I got hit with a Singapore Cane from Sandman. They were just putting me through the ringer.”
