#3 She was terrified to get the WWE Hall of Fame call
Alundra Blayze is one of the most accomplished female wrestlers in history. She spearheaded the Women's Revolution twenty years in advance, is a multi-time champion and a deserving Hall of Famer, but then there was the incident.
On the December 18, 1995 episode of WCW Nitro, Blayze threw the WWE Women's Championship in the trash can and started the Monday Night Wars in the process. Blayze later admitted regretting the move, which earned her persona non grata status with WWE.
For years, she closed the door on professional wrestling and doubted whether a reconciliation would ever be possible. Then her phone rang.
She told Sean Mooney,
"I never thought anyone respected me. I didn't think anyone liked me....I never watched it one day. I closed the door. I moved on and did Monster Trucks for 18 years and then I got a call to be inducted into the 2015 Hall of Fame and I was scared to death. I was more scared of that than giving my damn speech."
It was Scott Hall who broke the ice and made things a bit easier for her,
"Scott Hall (Razor Ramon) said something to me when I was inducted....He said, 'I never got to say this 'Duce, but a lot of us guys, we never wanted to follow your match. We never wanted to go after you and Bull Nakano.'"
It was high praise from the WWE Hall of Famer and Miceli began to look at things a bit differently,
"I think that's amazing. For 25 years, I thought I was just a piece of crap, really. That's how I felt....I hide it well, but I've gone through a lot of stuff."
Miceli described being a part of WWE again,
"It's the greatest feeling. I will say this over and over. It's so good to be back. It's an honor. It's great to mend fences and just to have that acceptance back was so amazing. I was scared about people welcoming back, but every person there - it was totally opposite - they welcomed me with open arms."
