Amber Nova Discusses Her Love For World Of Warcraft, Fans Creating Her In Wrestling Games

Amber Nova…..World of Warcraft gamer? You heard right. 

“Oh, yes. I used to play World of Warcraft,” Nova told FightfulGaming.com in an interview recently.

Between working as a wrestler, her time as an EMT, and spending time in the gym, Amber told us that not only did she find time to 

“So, Wild Bangarang is licensed with WWE and they make all the superstar’s leggings. Well, before they got that license with Marvel and WWE, I hit them up and was like, “Hey, I can be a brand ambassador for you,” and they even made me my own signature Amber Nova Wild Bangarang leggings. Which, they’re based out of London, too, which was cool. I got to meet them when I wrestled there. But, prior I was a huge fan of World of Warcraft, Pink Power Rangers. I just posted for Power Rangers Day the other week. My Pink Power Rangers leggings are Wild Bangarang and then I made the top and the gear myself, the gloves. Everybody’s like, “You know that’s not the right helmet, right?” and I’m like, “Yes, it’s the only thing I found at Goodwill and I spray painted it pink. It was good enough ‘cause I couldn’t find the helmet.” But, it looks really good for spray paint, right? Yeah, gamer for sure. That’s how I got with the Wild Bangarang and the custom leggings and they have World of Warcraft. They have all kinds of fun ones. I was big into Nintendo. Let’s see, James Bond: Golden Eye. I would always creep in Golden Eye. I owned every N64 game you can imagine. Original Nintendo, Duck Hunt. My dad had arcade machines in our house growing up. We had Mortal Kombat, we had Street fighter, Space Invaders. We would go through different arcade machines. So, yeah, definitely gamer family for sure,” Nova told us.

Even though she grew up liking and watching wrestling, it wasn’t she leaned into heavily in her video game playing.

“I was more into other games. Ninja Turtles, I played that. What’s funny was, I watched wrestling, but I didn’t play a ton of wrestling games. But, I still enjoyed it,” Nova said. 

Nova has not yet appeared in a wrestling video game, but feels like she already has been thanks to some creative fans.

“I’ve had a few fans create me in the WWE 2k. Man, I don’t know how they do it. They really get the gear. My name on the gear. They get everything like identical. I’m like, “Whoa, this is sweet.” So, I feel like I’ve already been created in the WWE 2k and all the games. They’ll tag me in it and I really love it. It’s so kick ass. So, yeah, I guess I already have been,” she said.

As far as her love and adoration for WOW, it helped lead her to a promising social media deal, as well.
