Emma was recently a guest on the Killing the Town podcast for her first post-WWE interview. She spoke with Lance Storm on a wide variety of topics.
One of these topics was about her Emmalina character. Specifically, if she was ever told by WWE where the gimmick was heading.
WWE ran vignettes for months to advertise that ‘Emmalina’ was coming soon. After several long months, she finally made her debut but instantly reverted back to her ‘Evil Emma’ character. It was strange, to say the least.
Here is what Emma said on the podcast about the character and what WWE told her [h/t to Fightful]:
“No. I wish I had more of a say. I don’t know, I guess there was an idea to it and they kind of realized along the way that wasn’t me. That wasn’t for me at all. I mean, I’m just not a diva, you know? I’m not like that at all. And I just want to wrestle. So I think they kind of realized that along the way or something like that and just were like, let’s just have her be Emma and have her be herself and we were able to bring that back around.“
