WWE Superstar Doudrop recently spoke about the additional pressure ahead of her title match at Royal Rumble.
Doudrop is scheduled to face Becky Lynch for the RAW Women's Championship at the event. She defeated Bianca Belair and Liv Morgan in a triple threat match to earn the title opportunity.
In an exclusive interview with Kevin Kellam of Sportskeeda Wrestling, the challenger opened up about the pressure of expectations on her:
"No, you're totally right. This is the constant battle that's in my head, like, so, part of me is, like, I just have this constantly, 'Oh, you should try and lose weight and be thin and jacked like all the other girls,' and then the other part is like, 'No, you're only booked because you're big and if you are not big anymore, you won't be special.' I'm, like, 'Oh my God.' So there's a bit of constant battle that goes on in my head with that, but I always find it really weird that some people, like, I remember I got asked in a German interview, they were, like, 'Do you think someone your size should be wrestling?' One, That's blunt?! (laughs) Two, if the aim of the game is to pin another person to the mat for a count of three, who is your money on? (laughs)" (03:46-05:00)
