From Hollywood, California, by way of the Broken Skull Ranch, this is the Steve Austin show.

Give me a hell yeah.

Hell yeah.

Now, here's Steve Austin.

God dang, I got the Smackdown Women's Champion.

Becky, welcome to the house.

Thank you so much. Thank you for having me. Well, what brings you out to Los Angeles? I love the city, and I'm a bit of a gypsy, so I'm always trying to figure out where I want to go, where I want to do next, where my next pit stop is. Every town that we go to, I pretty much say that I could live there. But every time I come out to L.A. I ask myself why I'm not living here. Where are you based out of right now? Orlando. How do you like Orlando? I like Orlando and it's okay so let me take you all the way back when I was 15 to start wrestling right? By 18, moved out of home, moved to Canada to pursue

wrestling, dropped out of college. Was brought over to Japan as the youngest foreign female to wrestle

over there, did a little bit over there, wrestled around America a little bit, and my visa

Why did you hate the personal training course? Because it wasn't what I wanted to do. Because I went from being so passionate about something to then going, okay, I'm going to do this because this is a sensible choice. Do you know what I mean? Sensible. But Jesus Christ, how old were you? You're only 29 now? I can't believe you've been in the business of wrestling for 12 years now. Well, I'd given up for seven years. Okay. So, um, so then I was sitting there and, and, and,

and I, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, I was just, and I, and I, and I, and I, and, I didn't have any friends

over there, and I was just, and I had no way of getting around, because I isolated myself. I mean, you didn't get out?

I just, I wanted to stay and,
