I didn’t even know what I was going to do, but whatever it was I was just ready to tackle it full force. “I don’t want to make him feel old but I was watching him when I was younger and it’s so crazy when I found out that was going to happen. “Everything was moving so fast, and honestly I was excited and so fortunate and honored to be paired with Bobby Lashley,” said Rush.

I got a chance to talk to her, and she was talking about some of the things she went through, how she dealt with it, and I even asked her if she could please reach out to Emma for me, and let her know I didn’t mean anything hurtful. She didn’t see it, but I saw her at the Performance Center, it was before she was about to make her comeback. I remember feeling like I don’t want to be here anymore, and it was all from a stupid tweet. I remember reaching out to Paige because of the situation she went through, and everybody saying such negative comments about her, just saying the most hateful things you could possibly think of. I was like ‘ahh, this is so bad.’ I started getting really depressed and I started thinking about disappearing. I remember she tweeted out like a, and then it really blew up. It was a lot going through my head, I ultimately tried to reach out to Emma, and I didn’t get a response. So when that happened, I wasn’t trying to make fun of people that were getting released, like Darren Young, man, I connected with him in such a way, I felt horrible. I was in my pajamas, I looked like crap, and Darren Young was on that same flight, and I was telling him what was happening to me and what I was going through, and I kind of connected with him and he told me to keep my head up.

I felt so bad, and I reached out to Emma, and at first I had mixed feelings about it. ![]() I didn’t mean it in a negative way like I’m bashing her.’ Then I started seeing hundreds of comments, thousands of comments of people just raining down on me, and I was like ‘I messed up. I even left it up when somebody told me to take it down. At the time, people tried to tell me as soon as it went up, I remember getting text messages like ‘hey, I think you should take that down’ and I didn’t really see the negative in it at all. I remember just being so entertained with what Asuka was doing, and her saying ‘nobody’s ready’ and I saw the two and honestly it was so stupid. ![]() I was sitting in a Waffle House when I and I didn’t even mean it in the slightest way to be hurtful or anything.
