Before she became a WWE Superstar, Summer Rae used to want to be one of The Godfather's ladies.
Summer Rae was this week's guest on Oral Sessions with Renee Paquette to discuss her shocking return later this month at the Royal Rumble. During the podcast, Rae spoke about how much she loved the Royal Rumble match growing up and a hilarious backstage interaction with WWE Hall of Famer The Godfather.
"Growing up the Rumble for me is like my favorite pay-per-view. It was always that or Money in the Bank, I thought was really cool. And then of course Mania everyone loves but all of my guy friend's love Rumble. It's just fun. It's exciting. Like when The Godfather comes out with his h**s. I told him that the first time we met I was like, 'I used to want to be your h** so bad.' And he was like, 'Ma'am, are you with catering? Like who are you?' I was a big fan."
