Ariane Andrew comments on Trinity's run in IMPACT Wrestling.
Fans were shocked when Trinity (the former Naomi) showed up in IMPACT Wrestling in May 2023, over a full year after she had last appeared for WWE. Trinity went on to quickly cement her legacy in the company, as she won the Knockouts World Championship in July, only months after making her debut for the promotion.
Trinity's former tag team partner, Ariane Andrew, was recently interviewed by Steve Fall of WrestlingNews.co. In the interview, Fall asked Andrew about Trinity's run in the company.
“I just spoke to her a few days ago. That’s always gonna be my sister from another mister, I always say that. We have so much history, but you know what, I am just so proud of her right now. I feel like, you know, she’s been waiting for this moment for so long and I just appreciate that I feel like she’s going to be able to do exactly how she wants to do it in her way. It sucks because I feel like some people get opportunities where you’re just like, dang that happened so quick, but I do think that — what I’m learning in life is that everything happens for a reason. Sometimes someone’s success or the moment they’re waiting for takes twenty years, for someone [else] it takes a year and I feel like we all get so stuck in that comparison where it can seem like, damn, when am I gonna ever get my own opportunity because I’m busting my ass, over here doing all these things, but like, where is the payoff. I’m excited, I know in a million years maybe she didn’t think that would be the path or maybe she thought it would be WWE, but what I’m learning is when you walk away from something and you make yourself like where people are listening and seeing, after that people will want to be like, ‘Hey…so!’ What I’m proud of is that she’s going out creating her name on her own terms and you never know, the sky is the limit. Maybe she sticks to that, who knows. I feel like the sky has no limits for her."
Andrew and Trinity last wrestled together in March 2016, where they teamed with Tamina against Alicia Fox, Paige, & Sasha Banks at a untelevised live event.
Trinity is set to take on Gisele Shaw on the September 28 episode of IMPACT Wrestling on AXS TV. Fans can learn more by clicking here.
