#1 The fire and intensity that Sonya Deville showed on WWE SmackDown was the reason why this role may have been conceived
WWE SmackDown star Sonya Deville caught up with Rick from SK Wrestling right before her 'Loser Leaves WWE' match at SummerSlam 2020 and you can check it out by clicking on the link shared above.
During her previous stint with the company, Sonya Deville showed us a fierceness and intensity in her promos on WWE SmackDown, leading up to the match, that impressed the WWE Universe to no end. Little did they know that underneath the MMA gimmick was a natural promo, who could spit fire on the microphone.
This may have definitely caught the eye (and the ears) of the powers that be, that determine the course of WWE SmackDown storylines and they may have decided to try Deville out in this spot, where she'll get to speak a lot more than her previous role.
You have to remember that they did the same with Alexa Bliss as well on RAW, who is another naturally gifted promo.
