Below are some of DDP’s comments:

On the early criticism she’s received:

“Give the girl a break man, she’s going to be great,” Page said. “She’s a great athlete, she brings a lot to the sport and so much attention to the WWE. She’s the biggest star – as far as an athlete – in the world.”

On finding your comfort zone:

“It’s a lot of pressure going in, but that girl thrives on pressure. … I believe in her and she’s definitely going to put the work in,” Page said. “I used to say Page Joseph Falkinburg – which is my given name – when Page Joseph Falkinburg stopped trying to be this over the top professional wrestler, Diamond Dallas Page, and Diamond Dallas Page became Page Joseph Falkinburg that’s when my career took off. And Ronda will find that because she’s one of the baddest women on the planet and she’ll find it.”
