WWE Diva Eve Torres has been named Woman of the Month by “Made Woman.” An article at MadeWomanMag.com looks at the Colorado native’s road to WWE as well as her outside projects, namely, philanthropy (through WWE, Make a Wish, Tribute to the Troops) and teaching Mixed Martial Arts to women.
A Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu blue belt, Eve teaches self defense classes at the Gracie Academy, where a smaller, weaker person could defeat a larger attacker. “There are subliminal insecurities that come with being weaker.”
In addition to the women’s Jiu-Jitsu classes that she teaches, she was also asked by the Gracie family to appear in the “Women Empowered” series of training videos on self-defense. Eve says that getting to teach young girls self-defense is one of the biggest accomplishments in her career.
They also wrote that she hasn’t drank alcohol in 3 years and is very protective of her image. She said, “I stopped drinking three years ago and have had to turn down sponsorships because they don’t fit my brand.”
