Former WWE Diva Eve Torres, who is expecting her first child with husband Rener Gracie, was recently interviewed by Joey Styles for WWE.com. When asked about the news that WWE is bringing back the Divas Search competition, she said:
“I’m happy to hear that Diva Search is back. I was wondering when WWE would bring it back. The one thing that I always encourage women who want to be WWE Divas to do is have something you are passionate about. For me it was Jiu-Jitsu and martial arts. For some people it’s soccer. Whatever it is, it gives you confidence and that will translate. That’s what WWE fans look for. That’s what WWE looks for in their Divas. WWE wants women who are confident and can handle everything that being a WWE Diva comes with like lots of travel and being tough.”
She also volunteered to offer self-defense classes to the contestants.
After recently shooting a movie with Jackie Chan in China, Eve said she hopes to continue acting and has received offers for new roles:
“Yes. Being offered the role in the Jackie Chan film was amazing. I got to do a fight scene with Jackie Chan. I really enjoyed it. I feel that I got to use all of my strengths and had a lot of fun. As timing has it, it’s a good time for me to take a break from the movie and television scene while I prepare for our new addition.”
Eve offered this response when asked if there’s a chance we will see her on Total Divas:
