More info on the career development of one of WWE’s hottest stars.
Raquel Rodriguez has had a strange run on the blue brand of WWE. After coming up from NXT as the former champion, she faced a brief period of not being used but now, is one of the top contenders to face Ronda Rousey in the future for the SmackDown women’s championship.
While speaking on Ryan Satin’s Out Of Character podcast, Rodriguez revealed that she had trouble staying serious while training at the WWE Performance Center.
“When I first started at the Performance Center, they could not get me to stop smiling and I’m supposed to be this big and tall and intimidating character and that was my biggest struggle really was trying to stay serious when you’re just having fun and that’s what it was and it always has been to me is I’m out there, I’m doing something I love, I’m having fun doing it, I’m doing it with my friends, why wouldn’t you wanna smile? Right?”

Of course, we have seen as of late that Raquel is not afraid to smile. She always looks happy to be in the ring or on TV at all, which is a promising part of her game as a babyface. Time will tell if Raquel can be more serious going forward.
