Joey Styles of WWE.com recently spoke with former Diva Eve Torres about being pregnant, acting and the Diva Search.
Here are some of the highlights:
WWE.COM: Firstly, congratulations to you and Rener on your big announcement.
EVE: Thank you! We are so excited to be parents!
WWE.COM: Has your pregnancy affected you teaching Gracie Academy’s Women Empowered?
EVE: If hasn’t yet. I’m still teaching classes and Rener and I are going to be traveling June to teach our military personnel. We are going to Fort Campbell. We have been working with the military and teaching law enforcement officers as well. I’ll keep teaching until the baby tells me to stop.
WWE.COM: Are WWE and UFC already in a bidding war to sign the baby?
EVE: [Laughs] Can you imagine? That’s a lot of pressure to put on a baby.
WWE.COM: WWE just announced that WWE Diva Search is returning and will be on WWE Network. As a onetime contestant and winner yourself, do you have any advice for future Diva hopefuls?
EVE: I’m happy to hear that Diva Search is back. I was wondering when WWE would bring it back. The one thing that I always encourage women who want to be WWE Divas to do is have something you are passionate about. For me it was Jiu-Jitsu and martial arts. For some people it’s soccer. Whatever it is, it gives you confidence and that will translate. That’s what WWE fans look for. That’s what WWE looks for in their Divas. WWE wants women who are confident and can handle everything that being a WWE Diva comes with like lots of travel and being tough.
WWE.COM: Is there any chance that we see you on “Total Divas”?
EVE: If they want the contestants to take a self-defense class, I’m always available.
