Sonya Deville : (5) " My first time being inside the Performance Center was for the WWE Tough Enough tryouts, and although I knew hardly anything about sports-entertainment, I knew I wanted to be a part of this place. " - Sonya Deville " Being a lifelong athlete, I am a firm believer that I am who I am today because of sports. Not only did it give me structure and a solid foundation, but it gave me a sense of failure and how to overcome failure. " - Sonya Deville " I feel like the story me and Ronda can tell one day will be so awesome, and I think we have something special here. I think that it’s going to be an honor and a privilege to work in the ring with her. That’s the biggest compliment, is that Ronda Rousey – she’s done a lot in her life. She’s accomplished a lot. " - Sonya Deville " The Women’s Evolution was just starting as I was getting into ‘Tough Enough.’ I’ve always had great role models coming in and watching the Becky Lynches and the Charlottes, the Bayleys, the Sashas move that movement and then being able to be part of it. " - Sonya Deville " It’s insane how many fans I have from the LGBTQ+ community. I would say the majority of my fanbase are young, gay women. " - Sonya Deville
