I'm so glad I can talk about this now. 😁

Nikki Cross has publicly commented on the gimmick, noting that it brings her “such joy” to be able to bring the character to life.
Killian Dain, Cross’ husband, has also taken to social media to comment on the gimmick. During Raw last night, Dain said it was great to see Cross debuted a gimmick that she created on TV.
Fans have often asked for WWE stars to have more controlo over their characters, so it’s great to see Nikki Cross have the ability to pitch a gimmick to WWE and have it debut on TV.
