WWE ID prospect Zayda Steel spoke with Casual Conversations about several topics, including training with Natalya and what she learned from the WWE veteran.
Steel said, “Well, for one, I was able to quit my regular job, and now wrestling is my full-time job, so that’s at the top, as well as being able to train with Natalya. I can’t even put that into words, because I grew up watching Total Divas and obsessing over her and her family. I’ll say this, I learned the most and felt the most comfortable in that Dungeon. Obviously, when I first went there, I was shy, but she is so sweet, and definitely brought a lot of confidence out of me. Even as simple as, like, we were all, like, working on heat, and she stopped us and was like, ‘Hey, I need you guys to find your inner ‘F**k You.’ All those bad words and negativity that you read on social media. Yeah, I want you to feel it.’ She even used Ahante Thee Adonis as an example. She was like, ‘Hey, he went from this, and now, look, he’s consistently used on TV.’ So she just used him as an example, as in, to show that find your inner ‘F**k you.’ Keep going and sometimes, you do have to listen to and you do have to feel the negativity. I definitely would say I just loved working with her and TJ as well. I also trained with Pete Dunne, as well.”
