"I'm aware I don't have it, just give me time; I'll make you money" - RAW star to Vince McMahon
WWE star Shayna Baszler told Vince McMahon to trust her and promised him that she will make "money" for him.
Shayna Baszler was called up to the main roster in 2020 and had a title shot shortly after her RAW debut. She is a two-time Women's Tag Team Champion and currently holds the belt with Nia Jax.
In her recent appearance on Renee Paquette's Oral Sessions, Shayna Baszler narrated how Vince McMahon loved two matches where "she beat" someone up, but a similar match with Natalya was not appreciated by the WWE Chairman and they were asked to redo the match. She then stated that she spoke to Vince McMahon in his office and how she asked him to trust her.
"I go in there - and I don't even know what I wanted out of it, I think it was just to get it off my chest, but I was like, 'man, listen, I know I have something that no one else has. I know I can bring a certain legitimacy to this that no other female has. I don't know how to figure it out week to week yet, but just give me a chance.' I was like, 'you'll never have to worry about me being in shape if you want me to go out there and wrestle the same match a hundred times. I'll do it. I'll figure it out, just give me time. Like, I'm just letting you know I'm aware I don't have it, just give me time. I'll make you money.' And he was like, 'Can't wait.'"
