In an interview with NewsHub, Indi Hartwell spoke about joining The Way and how she felt she didn’t belong in a group that included Johnny Gargano and Candice LeRae. Here are highlights:


On working with Gargano and LeRae: “It was really humbling to me that the company trusted me in that situation at this early stage of my career. Johnny and Candace are exceptional talents, and I can’t even quantify how much I am learning from them every day. And that’s not just in-ring stuff. They are both so well-rounded as performers, so my promo work has to be up to scratch to hang with them and that’s been a big focus for me. Honestly, I didn’t think I was good enough to be in a program with Johnny and Candace, but I am so happy with how the storyline is playing out and the best is yet to come for us.”

On Bayley vs. Sasha Banks at NXT Takeover: Brooklyn convincing her to be a pro wrestler: “That was it. I always loved pro wrestling growing up, but that moment, it turned from a dream into a passion. At age 19, I knew that nothing was going to stop me from doing it and I signed up for wrestling school the next day. It’s really cool now that five-six years later, I have the chance to very soon – hopefully – work with those two. I’m walking in their footsteps now and hopefully, I’ll walk alongside them in the future.”


On Dakota Kai: “I love Dakota so much. She is such a talent and she will be a champion in WWE.”
