Saraya has no interest in being involved in reality TV shows anytime soon.
All Elite Wrestling‘s Saraya recently sat down with Kenny McIntosh of Inside The Ropes to discuss a wide variety of subjects. Saraya said she didn’t want to do All Access but did it as a favor to Britt Baker to help enhance their storyline together.
“I don’t know. I didn’t even want to be on Access,” Saraya revealed. “Honestly, after doing Total Divas, I feel like I’ve matured a lot, and I’m kind of embarrassed about how I was on Total Divas because I was young and drinking and all that kind of stuff.
“So I wasn’t really wanting to be on the show that much, and I was doing it for Britt and our storyline at the time, and it was my comeback thing, and I wanted to do that with her. But usually, reality shows, I just don’t trust them 100%. And with Total Divas, they would spin things and make it look like something that wasn’t. I just don’t have a lot of trust in them. “
Saraya said if she were to do another reality show, it would be with her boyfriend, Ronnie Radke. She also wouldn’t consider it unless she had complete creative control over her character.
“If I was to do it, I want to do my own reality show. I had like seven or eight different production companies all reach out to me to want to do this reality show with me and my boyfriend and stuff like that. And fortunately, we couldn’t do it currently because I’m just not in the right mindset to deal with a reality show.
Maybe It’s Good TV
“But if I had to, I would have to have creative control completely of anything to do with me on the show. They were allowed to use bits and pieces of me on All Access and stuff like that, but I love Britt [Baker] and Adam [Cole]. Everyone else is getting time because reality shows do help.
“They reach markets that are non-wrestling markets. It brings more eyes to the show and stuff like that. But I don’t want to be a full-time cast member for it. That’s not something that I want to do, and for some reason, they always want me to be on it. I don’t know why. Maybe I am very outspoken, or I don’t care what comes out of my mouth when I’m speaking; I have a lot of verbal diarrhea.
“So maybe it’s good TV. Yeah, I don’t know. Maybe it’s because I’ve been very controversial in my career, so they think something else would happen that would send people into a frenzy; I don’t know, but they do. They like me being a part of it. I just cannot do that side of things anymore. Not for right now.”
