When I was young, I loved gymnastics, but I discovered when I was 15 that I wanted a teenage life.

When I was in 4th grade, my mom was diagnosed with oral cancer. It was not looking good, it was serious when they found it. Obviously, I didn't know much about what was going on. I remember feeling a lot of guilt about it, feeling like I somehow contributed to it. I think that's just something that kids often do.

I look forward to having a president who doesn't grope or objectify women.

My goal was to always get my degree. Once I did that, I thought I could pursue any other passion because I had something to fall back on if I needed it.

I'm just sending a message to women that you can be anything you want to be.

I think any time you get the chance to represent the title and to earn the title, you learn how to represent it in the best way. You learn how to wear it with honor, fight for it with honor and really become the face of WWE for the Divas.

All of the Divas are given opportunities. It's kind of the way you go after them and what you do with them. I feel like I was able to seize the opportunity I was given, and now I am Divas champion.

I never planned on going into MMA or anything like that.

Anyone who reads the comics knows Maxima comes to Earth in search of a mate among the superhero population - specifically Superman. She's denied by him and she becomes very angry and bitter. We'll see how that history plays out in the show - every adaptation is a little bit different, but 'Supergirl' does a great job with the source material.

I've been really impressed with 'Supergirl.' It's a great show because it's appeals to DC Comics fans, staying true to the characters in spirit and costumes, and it also appeals to casual fans who enjoy good action, fun storylines and interesting characters.

The Divas division is always an uphill battle. We have a group of really hungry and talented women. It's just a matter of being able to showcase all of us in the right light and with the right stories.

It's really important to take your own personal safety into your own hands.

All the Divas work hard, they're all threats. They're just not as good as I am.

I've always fantasized about facing Lita.

The whole time I was in WWE, I was like, 'We need a reality show,' because the stuff that goes down is just crazy.

I really miss so many of the people at WWE.

Sometimes you experience magic out in the ring.

I always wanted to be liked, and I thought that if you were nice to everyone then everyone would like you. That's not always the case.

You can be feminine and wear heels, dresses, and makeup, and still be a powerful woman - physically, mentally, emotionally.

If you see a woman who is struggling with bags or looks struggling in general, help her. Don't leave her vulnerable to someone else.

If a predator tries to get a hold of you, yell, kick, and punch. Do all of the typical self-defense measures you've heard of - eye-gouging, knee to the crotch. Anything you can do to cause a scene.

If you go about life the right way and you're good to other people that will show and will payoff in the long run.

The Great Khali is incredible. He is an international superstar and a movie star too.

I always try different things to stay in shape whether it is dancing or Jiu-Jitsu or training weights in the gym. I try to do a little bit of everything.

I look up to Divas like Trish Stratus and Lita. They are very beautiful women and they are bad. They are strong and great competitors who can handle themselves.

I have always had a passion for competition and performance.

Not everyone likes seeing a strong, buff guy, but everyone likes women. We compete just as hard as men do, and we can do the acting just as well.

My background in gymnastics, martial arts, and dancing has translated very well in the ring.

I was a wrestler and now I teach jiu-jitsu, but they're obviously different in many ways. However, they do kind of translate.

I would say that the one thing I miss obviously is the in-ring action. The closest I get to that is being able to teach big groups of women and leading them down the path towards empowerment towards jiu-jitsu.

I embrace my Latina background because I know that by doing so we will continue to break down stereotypes that may exist of Latina women.

I can't tell you the number of times I have been underestimated, objectified or deprived of fair credit for my accomplishments based on my gender or ethnicity.

Being offered the role in the Jackie Chan film was amazing. I got to do a fight scene with Jackie Chan.

Performing for WWE did so much for me in terms of teaching me how to act and doing fighting scenes.

The one thing that I always encourage women who want to be WWE Divas to do is have something you are passionate about. For me it was Jiu-Jitsu and martial arts. For some people it's soccer. Whatever it is, it gives you confidence and that will translate.

Obviously, I love Becky Lynch. She's 'The Man,' right?

Where the women's division is now, if you had told me when I was there that women were gonna headline 'WrestleMania,' I would have said, 'Get out of here. That's never gonna happen.'

I honestly felt like there was a ceiling for me that I was not able to break.

Vince has always been so hands-on, and that's why WWE does so well.

I'm proud of the Diva division.

When it comes to the live events, you get to see great Diva matches you don't see on 'Monday Night Raw.'

'Stars Earn Stripes' was one of the best experiences of my life.

WWE is a huge supporter of our troops. Part of my love and admiration for our men and women in the military has come from the tours we have done.

I think being a WWE Diva is a tough job; there's lots we do that's not seen on television, constantly working and trying to better ourselves.

I'm excited about developing as a Diva and finding where my place is in this company.

It's one thing when my family is just happy, but it's another thing when they're really proud of me.

I joined the 'Celebri-tee campaign' and customized what is negatively known as a 'wife beater' to raise awareness about domestic abuse and the ways in which abusive language can be hurtful.

I think I just need to be myself. I think that's what this 'Diva Search' competition is all about.

When I started working with Maryse is when I really felt like people can start to see what I stand for and who I am.

When they told all of us about the idea of NXT, for the Divas that was our first question - will there be women on the show?
