Emma, or Emmalina, or is it Emma? I don’t know, that promo on last week’s Raw was kind of confusing. Anyway, Emma may be WWE’s first Australian superstar, but she certainly isn’t WWE’s only Australian superstar.
Billie Kay has been making waves in NXT, but sometimes the road to success isn’t about what you know, it’s who you know. Billie recently spoke to the Miami Herald about her road to getting a WWE contract, and she revealed that Emma and another friend of hers tipped her off about a possible opportunity with the company. Billie Kay then participated in a tryout session in Melbourne and now she’s a full fledged NXT superstar.
“I am friends with Emma [now WWE Superstar Emmalina],” she said. “I was contacted through her as well as another mentor of mine, Jag, from Adelaide in Australia that WWE was having a tryout in Melbourne. I sent my stuff through, and I was fortunate enough to receive the OK to attend the tryout. It was three days, and it was before WWE had a live event in Melbourne. It was incredible, and then eight weeks later, I was fortunate enough to get an email, saying they were interested in signing me. That was one of the best days of my life. I still remember screaming and crying and just jumping for joy with my family.”
Emma recently made her return to WWE, and with the way things are going for Billie Kay it seems like it’s only a matter of time before she gets called up to the WWE main roster.
Sooner or later we’re going to see these two talented ladies face off. Who will you be rooting for, Emma or Billie Kay? Sound off in the comments below.
