NXT Superstar Sol Ruca will compete later this evening on the same card that will feature John Cena‘s final match at Saturday Night’s Main Event.
WWE NXT Superstar Sol Ruca recently spoke with Ryan Gaydos of FOX News. When asked about her match later tonight against Bayley on Saturday Night’s Main Event, Ruca said she’s really excited to be in the ring with someone like her that she can learn from.
“I’m so excited, especially being so new to the industry and going up against someone like Bayley, who has been doing this so much longer than me,” Sol Ruca said. “And I’m just really excited to learn. I’m really excited to be in that type of environment. I’m really excited to just put it all out there and just have fun, to be honest.
“She’s definitely been around the (WWE Performance Center) a few times. I think when I was really, really new to it, she hopped into a class with us, and we got to wrestle around with her, and I’ve seen her in the locker room a few times, like being up on Raw and SmackDown recently. She’s really nice, and she’s really open to letting us learn and just being a good role model.”
John Cena selected Sol Ruca for the Iron Survivor Challenge at NXT Deadline
When asked about being on the same show as John Cena’s final match, Ruca said she’s proud of herself and noted that it was that Cena selected her for the Iron Survivor Challenge at Deadline.
“I’m honored, and I’m really proud of myself for this past year and just putting myself out there even just to be in this world of professional wrestling,” Sol Ruca said. “I am a pretty reserved and shy person. So, I feel like I’ve pushed myself a lot this past year, and I’m really proud of myself to be in this position and really honored to be a part of it.
“Like, yeah, I’m going to be a part of making history and I feel like this past year has had that common thread, you know, being a double champion and being a speed champion and North American champion and then going for the tag titles with my tag partner and then now being on John Cena’s last show and also him picking me to be a part of Deadline. It’s been a really cool year for me.”
