“When I first got told like, ‘Hey, Lola, you’re coming to Mexico,’ I was like, Wow, okay. I had never wrestled outside of NXT.”
Her earliest shows occurred just before WWE’s takeover of AAA, allowing her to see the original setup, which included a minimalistic ring and a rougher working environment. She added,
“I went to Mexico actually, I think two or three shows before WWE completely took over it. And I got to see the way the talent there wrestled.”
As the company developed under new leadership, including Undertaker’s role as an executive, she noticed significant improvements:
“Then I saw when WWE took over and Undertaker came in as the boss and now they changed the ring, they changed the production, they changed the crew, it was like wow. Not only did I see AAA before, but I saw it grow in front of my eyes to what it is today.”
During this period, Lola Vice adapted more dimensions of her wrestling persona.
