Excited about the development, she said her initial reaction to her daughter’s passion for pro wrestling was that it was a passing phase. However, the girl’s determination made her think otherwise. “It’s really cool. I used to hear her say it a lot but I thought it was just a phase. Then one day I asked her, what do you want to be when you grow up? And she kind of looked at me like…’Um, I want to be a wrestler?!’,” Belair was quoted as saying by People.
