Fans have probably wondered by now what actually got Paola into professional wrestling. TV Insider recently spoke with Paola, and she revealed what got her into this new career. It turns out she “didn’t know” about the sport previously, and she ended up watching a movie.

“I didn’t know about wrestling,” Paola said to the publication. “Russ and I were in Colombia visiting my family, and I watched this autobiographical movie about Paige [called “Fighting with My Family”]. The way she expresses herself and carries herself in the ring—it got me to want to try this. I called my manager to help me find a school in Miami. I took my first bump, and it was rough. At the same time, I felt I could do this. From then on I started training. I love it.”

Paola captioned the post on Instagram: “Everyone gets a #bodyslam.” She revealed she was training at Magic City Wrestling, and she added a few hashtags, “#paolablaze #prowrestling.”
