Trish Stratus sees a bright future for Maxxine Dupri in WWE, in spite of a recent incident at one of the company’s untelevised live events.
The event in question saw one fan unleash a barrage of boos and insults at Dupri, raising questions as to whether the fan went too far with their vitriol.
In a recent interview with Slam Wrestling, Stratus spoke about Dupri and her high expectations for the Alpha Academy member. She said,
“I think that Maxxine (Dupri) is doing amazing. I think she’s being booked perfectly. I see similar parallels to the way I was booked early on. I believe I have this connection with the fans because of how I came up. I didn’t do the traditional upbringing. I didn’t come in trained, I didn’t do the indies or the ‘minor league’ so to speak.
“I literally learned on the road – I learned as I went, and everyone was along for the journey. They got to see me fall down. But they also got to see me stand up, dust myself off, and try again.”
“She’s athletic, she’s got a great look, she’s gorgeous. I think she’s the perfect underdog story. And I think it’s going to turn around and people are going to click with her, and she’ll be around a long time.
“I would (encourage) her to use those negative words as her fuel. I hope she turns it into a fire so that she can go back to them and say, look at what I did now. When I was getting criticized, when people were telling me I’d never succeed, my motivation was to become so good that people couldn’t help but notice. That drove me. Hopefully that can be her fuel as well.”
Following the live event, Dupri, who has 13 matches to her name, was shown support by several Superstars on WWE’s roster.
