Trinidad honours her father through pro wrestling

This day is a huge part of Trinidad – her father died as a result of the attacks in New York City. He was in the North Tower of the World Trade Center when the buildings collapsed.

Trinidad was featured on the Children of 9/11 special that aired five years ago. During the special, Trinidad spoke of her father and cited that wrestling was what bonded them in her younger years. When she was old enough, Trinidad pursued wrestling as a way to honour her father.

Trinidad also had worked as a counsellor at a camp that was specifically for children who lost parents on 9/11.
