#4 She credits a lot of her success to her ex-boyfriend

Long before Catanzaro got into a relationship with WWE Superstar Ricochet, she was involved with Brent Steffensen. When Steffensen was offered a job to test out the obstacle course for Alpha Warrior, he asked the people in charge whether they needed a woman too. Upon receiving a positive response, he suggested Catanzaro.

He moved from L.A. and I moved from New Jersey. We met in Texas and then about two months later we started dating. That was almost a year and a half ago, February 2013.

#3 Her dream was to become a TV stunt woman

Before joining WWE and showing off her in-ring skills down in NXT, Catanzaro had other dreams. She wanted to become a television stunt woman and once opened up on wanting to do stunts for a video game, or an action TV show, like her boyfriend at the time did. Catanzaro added that it's incredibly hard to get into, and people work for years on end without getting a break.

It’s so hard to get into, people are in Hollywood for 10 years and they never get a break in stunts.

While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
