"I will definitely put it into the easiest phrase, 'It's about time.' It's a very different time now than when I had left TNA and was kind of talking with WWE, and I don't think it was frowned upon per se but it was certainly something that didn't seem attainable."

She also thanked WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H and Stephanie McMahon for making this deal a possibility.

"And so, I'd like to think it's maybe the Triple H's regime or I'm not sure who to thank, my personal Jesus Stephanie McMahon whoever is in charge to make this decision to open it up to TNA who has been providing amazing talent for years during the women's revolution and things like that. I just love that there's a synergy there, and everyone's getting along. We're working together. Finally! So, thank you, WWE, thank you TNA. It's about time." [0:25 - 1:14]
