Lash Legend Recalls Her First Day Of Training In WWE, Praises Norman Smiley

Lash Legend recalls her first day of training in WWE.

Legend is considered by many to be a rising star in the world of NXT, despite only having a year of experience under her belt.

While appearing on the latest episode of UpNXT, Legend talked about her first day training in WWE and how she learned everything pretty quickly.

“I am the athlete. I am that athlete. Whenever I’m faced with any obstacle, I literally just become a machine and take it head on, like I said before. I remember that I had a wonderful coach named Norman Smiley on my first day, and he was just amazing with me. He taught me everything that I needed to know as far as the basics, the fundamentals, and I feel like I learned pretty fast because I had one of the best coaches in the world. Which also brings me to what my COVID tryout was like. I remember him being there, but I also remember I was the tryout that was right before the pandemic hit. So when I came up into WWE, it was a lot of COVID rules and it was a lot of getting tested obviously and just making sure to just stay with your group and your group only. So I remember more so of the COVID era of WWE.”

Legend was recently aligned with Noam Dar in NXT. Fans can learn more about the pairing here.
