New WWE Signee Nixon Newell Thought Her Tryout Invite Was Fake, Reveals Who She Wants to Work With in WWE, Professional Goals & More

22-year-old Welsh wrestler Nixon Newell recently caught up with the UK’s Total Wrestling Magazine to talk about being signed by WWE, who she would like to work with going forward, and what her goals are as a brand new WWE Superstar. Pro Wrestling Sheet first confirmed that Newell had been signed earlier this month, and is expected to take place in the upcoming Mae Young Classic women’s tournament set to drop on the WWE Network later this summer.

Highlights from the full interview with Total Wrestling Magazine are included below.

On how she found out about interest from WWE:

“It was a random email off William Regal, which I thought was fake. It told me to keep some dates free as I would probably have a tryout. Then the next day there was an official invitation tryout and when I looked at it I could just imagine it was made on Microsoft Word or something like that! It was a little ticket attached to an email stating I was officially invited to a WWE tryout, I couldn’t believe it. I still thought it was suspicious so I checked my email with Pete [Dunne] and it was exactly the same.”

On who she’d like to work with in WWE:

“Ruby Riot or as she was known Heidi Lovelace. I love Heidi and we click in the ring. For me in WWE there’s two women who, one I looked up to my entire career, that’s Mickie James and I’d love to wrestle her, the other is Asuka. She is such a bad ass and so good, I think we’d be able to have a match where it’s British strong style against Japanese wrestling style which would mesh really well.”

On what she’d like to accomplish in WWE:

“I want to hold every single women’s belt that’s in WWE. I want to go there and be the NXT women’s champion. I want to be the longest reigning NXT women’s champion. I want to be Raw and Smackdown women’s champion. But mainly I just want to have fun, travel the world, doing what I love. That’s always been a goal for me and to be in WWE has always been a dream.I just want to create a Nixon Newell legacy.”
