Lacey Evans Remembers Taking Her Daughter To A WWE House Show
After making her main roster debut in 2019 she featured in some controversial storylines. Her feud with Charlotte Flair had been one of the most controversial feuds of her entire career. In 2021 she took maternity leave and remained out of action for over a year. She better return to WWE a number of months before and the way her return promo packages were shown, it looked like WWE had some big plans for the former United States military.
But after she finally made her return, WWE looked clueless on what exactly to do with her. Unfortunately she turned to be a jobber at the end and she started jobbing on the episodes of Friday Night Smackdown. Her return had been one of the worst angles of WWE this year. However, it looked like WWE is finally planning something new for her and we seriously hope this time she gets an actual push.
Lacey Evans who is also a former APW World Heavyweight champion recently spoke to Brandi Rhodes’ 2 Lies and 1 truth podcast where she looked back at taking her daughter to a WWE house show in Germany. She also admitted that she was waiting for a phone call from WWE to go back to work. She said;
“Yeah, I hope so [Evans responded when Brandi said she hopes to see her soon]. I mean, some stuff may be in the works. I just gotta keep working hard and when they’re ready for me, I have to be ready so, you know how it is. I’m just waiting on that phone call. Good or bad, good or bad, it’s a phone call man. You just gotta be ready [Evans laughed].
“We [WWE] were in Germany I think and we were on tour and my daughter — so I was doing a stint with Becky [Lynch] and Seth [Rollins] and I needed to run out. It’s a live show, they improv a lot,” says Lacey Evans.
“Just do a lot of fun based off the crowd reactions and stuff and they wanted me to do this run out real quick because Becky was out there and it was Seth and my husband had just went to take a crap in the bathroom so I had my daughter and I’m sitting with my daughter and I’ve already done my match, so this is at the end, like an end thing they threw in there and I was like, oh no, my daughter.
“She was little at this time so they’re like, ‘We got her, go’ and I look and all the guys, the boys backstage, they’re like, ‘We got her. It’s okay’ and my daughter’s tiny and I just remember thinking, my husband takes a long time to take a dump and I’m about to have to go out here and leave my kid but you know, Roman Reigns was there, there was a couple other — just all the boys and they’re like, ‘We got this’ and I had to run, producers were like, ‘Go! Go! Go!’ says Lacey Evans.
“So I went and I come back and then my husband was just coming out and he was just smiling, hanging out with the boys but it was pretty funny, you know? Because as a mom, you’re like, what do I do? What do I do? She wasn’t old, she wasn’t ten years old… So yeah, that was pretty funny but they looked at me with not even second guessing it. They’re like, ‘We got her, go’ and I was just like, ‘Okay’ and I left my baby just out there with the boys and I ran into the crowd so it was pretty funny.”
