4 Facts about 'The Lady of NXT' Lacey Evans

#2 Her first wrestling match was in the military

Lacey has come a long way

The most interesting thing about her military career was that it led to her wrestling career. Just like many other wrestlers who served in the military before and got some training through their experience there, Evans did so too.

Estrella was introduced to wrestling while in the Marines through a staff sergeant who promoted independent shows on the side. Her first wrestling match was when he invited her to a show and then booked her to wrestle him in the main event of the second show she attended.

She lost that match and says that it was one of the most difficult matches she has had, he was a 250 pound active Marine. The inter,gender match still gave her a lot of experience.

"Probably one of the hardest matches I've ever had. He was a big man," said Evans, breaking into a slight grin. "I did not win."
