Former WWE Diva admits she could have slept with people for a spot

Shelly Martinez

After being release from TNA Knockout and WWE, former Diva Shelly Martinez talks about how desperately she needed to get back in the ring. She recently wrestled he friend, “Ultra Girl” Brittany Wonder, in an event in Northern California.

“At one point in my life, it hurt me so bad. Wrestling broke my heart, and now that my heart’s broken, wrestling is being there for me. I just think it’s so cool that all these times I could have cut corners, I could have slept with people to get a spot, I could have just not even slept with them, just flirted with people and led them on to get a spot, or more money, or screw people over;

"I didn’t do it. And now finally I’m able to receive the blessing of keeping true to my art, and because that my art was good to me, and I just can’t wait to see that match because that’s what happens. I released in a way that I just needed to, it stuck in me.”

“Talk about releasing, oh my gosh. I got to release so much that was just pent up inside of me and I just needed to release it all, all these emotions, all this heartbreak, all this anger, all this frustration, all this hurt, and because Hoodslam booked me against my friend, who I can trust?

"We went out there and took our energy, and we had ourselves a hell of a match.

"And I’m sorry to get emotional, but it’s beautiful…wrestling,” said Martinez on her “Save Wrestling” podcast.
