Hear how that happened, why she doesn’t wear a mask, and how she keeps a straight face when filming BTE with John Silver. Anna’s also talking about training at the Nightmare Factory with QT Marshall, tagging with Tay Conti, the impact that Jerry Lynn has had on her development and AEW career to date, and learning the sleeper hold from Arn Anderson in order to choke out Brandi Rhodes on Dynamite. She remembers bonding with her dad over wrestling, the promos he used to cut on her as a kid, and the inspiration for her Star Of The Show gimmick.
