Stephanie Vaquer Comments on WWE Gave Her Option to Start in NXT or Main Roster

A recent episode of the Busted Open Radio After Dark podcast featured WWE NXT talent Stephanie Vaquer as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Vaquer’s thoughts about how WWE gave her the option to start her career in the company in their NXT brand or main roster and why she decided on going to NXT first.

Hello,’ and now I understand more English and I cannot speak no good. Sorry… When Shawn Michaels called me… I tried to speak in English. But, he say, ‘Okay, I know you understand but you not speak good English. So, I speak slow’ and understand… maybe not 100 percent.
