VanZant chatted with ESPN MMA in March of this year about her future in combat sports.
“You know, for me I always say I have a plan of what I want to do. Right now, I want to do pro wrestling, I want to do pro fighting, I want to do bare knuckle boxing,” she said. “I’m pretty much open as far as career-wise, I do exactly what I want to do when I want to do it… I’m very passionate about all the things that I get into and I try to take them on 100%.”
“I know it’s a very athletic, demanding industry, but that’s where I feel like I shine,” she later added of pro wrestling.
