"I put so much effort" - Nikki A.S.H recalls creating and pitching her new WWE character

Last month, on an episode of WWE RAW, Nikki A.S.H debuted a new gimmick. Prior to her Money in the Bank qualifying match, Nikki cut a promo backstage in a brand new outfit similar to a superhero's. Later, she provided information on her character.

The former Women's Tag Team Champion has since been sporting this new look and has gained a lot of support from the WWE fanbase online. Speaking with Joseph Staszewski of The New York Post, Nikki A.S.H discussed what went into making her new character and had the following to say when asked what her emotions were before pitching the idea,

"I believe in the idea. I put so much energy and time. I put so much effort." Nikki said, "I put so much time into this, into building this idea. So for me, one thousand percent, I knew it was gonna work. I knew how much I believed in it and I knew my energy and enthusiasm. I knew that I was going to be able to explain it. What I’m trying to say Joe is there weren’t nerves because of how much I believed in the idea."
