A WWE star has reflected on their performance in January’s Royal Rumble, which saw them eliminate two Hall of Famers.
Lash Legend hit the ground running following her official main roster call-up in November 2025, going on to have a dominant showing in the women’s Royal Rumble match, and win the Women’s Tag Team Championship in the months that followed.
Speaking with Esteban Ramirez, Lash Legend reflected on her Royal Rumble showing, which saw her eliminate Jordynne Grace, Charlotte Flair, IYO SKY, Nikki Bella and Brie Bella.
Lash Legend recalled:
“Honestly, when everything was going on, I was just like, whoa. I think I was just like in the moment, making everything happen that I had to do, but then after it really hit me.
“I’m like ‘What just happened? Was I really just in the Royal Rumble? Did I just eliminate these Hall of Famers and future Hall of Famers, these legends?’
“I guess the Legend had to eliminate the legends. It definitely hit me after.”

Opening up about her mindset heading into events post-main roster call-up, Lash Legend continued:
“I’ve been doing a good job though, just taking in moments and just breathing in these opportunities that I’ve been getting.
“A lot of times, a lot of people say ‘It just goes by so fast, you want to just take in the moment. Don’t be so anxious or tied up into the other little things that you don’t really enjoy it.’
“I just feel like this whole entire time that I’ve been on the main roster, since I came onto the main roster, I’m like, ‘You know what? Every little thing I’m going to do, I want to just breathe and take in all the moments.’ I feel like I’ve been doing a really good job with that.”

Noting that she was overwhelmed with emotion after the match, Legend concluded:
“With the Royal Rumble, I was just like, wow! Looking out, seeing the amazing Saudi Arabian crowd, I’m like ‘Dang, they’re ready to rock and roll with us.’
“That was a good feeling, but then I think the actual surrealness of it hit me after, and I was just overwhelmed with so much emotion. I was like, ‘Whoa, this is crazy.'”

Lash Legend has crossed paths with the Bella Twins since, teaming with Nia Jax to defend the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship in a match which ended in a no contest on the March 20 SmackDown episode.
With Nikki and Brie Bella previously stating that it’s their goal to hold tag-team gold together, we will likely see the sisters challenge for Legend & Jax’ gold again soon, possibly at WrestleMania, where the Bella Twins are confirmed to be appearing.
