"Oh, he is so cool" - Carmella says WWE Hall of Famer was her first wrestling "crush"
WWE RAW Superstar Carmella recently disclosed that her first pro wrestling crush was Hall of Famer 1-2-3 Kid, AKA X-Pac.
X-Pac began his career in WWE in 1993 before moving to rivals WCW and becoming a part of the nWo. He returned to his old promotion as a part of D-Generation X before featuring in TNA (IMPACT Wrestling) and other promotions.
Corey Graves and Carmella were recently interviewed by Barstool's Brandon Walker, where they were asked about their first pro wrestling crushes.
Carmella said:
"1-2-3 Kid. If you want me to be 1,000% honest, I loved the 1-2-3 Kid... When I got a little bit older, then, obviously Razor Ramon, like are you kidding me? My dad actually wrestled him in his debut match. I loved Razor Ramon, but if I'm being 1,000% honest, the first time I ever saw the 1-2-3 Kid, I was like, ‘Oh, he is so cool.'" (H/T Fightful)
Graves was a little surprised by Carmella's first pro wrestling crush. His first pro wrestling crushes were ECW's Francine and Beulah McGillicutty.
