Evans then talked about her experience in The 30-Woman Royal Rumble Match and she called it nerve wracking. She said, “It was nerve wracking. I was the first one out, and even had a promo,” Evans said of the experience. “It was so much fun. It had a huge crowd, and what an experience.”

Evans will be facing Nikki Cross at Saturday’s Live Event in Peoria, IL. When asked about Cross, Evans said that she is the classiest Superstar ever in WWE. She said, “She’s (Cross) is full of chaos and has no discipline. She’s insane. There’s no telling what she will do. We are such polar opposites. I’m the classiest superstar ever in the WWE.”

“She travels to almost every show with me and my husband,” Evans said. “She tells everyone who will listen that her mother is in the WWE. They are my biggest supporters.”
