Mickie James is excited for the ‘cool moment’ at Royal Rumble
Speaking to Mihir Joshi on The MJ Show, the IMPACT Knockouts World Champion shared her thoughts on being the first person to walk through the ’˜forbidden door’.
“I know that IMPACT and WWE have worked together in the past on certain things. But honestly, to get the call to come back to the Royal Rumble, and knowing that I’m the Knockout[s] World Champion and I can represent the hardcore country and myself and how much I’ve just grown in the past year. It’s been quite a journey and it’s been awesome and I think it’s going to be a really cool moment for something that’s never been seen before,” Mickie said.
The fans are eagerly waiting to witness James on WWE TV while also being the IMPACT Knockouts Champion.
