Naomi says she is the epitome of evolution.
As the WWE Evolution Premium Live Event on Sunday, Rhea Ripley and IYO Sky met in the main event for the WWE Women’s World Title. However, neither would walk out of the show as champion, as Naomi would cash in the Money In The Bank briefcase in order to win the title.
While speaking on the WWE Evolution Recap show on YouTube, Naomi spoke about her journey, noting that she is ‘the epitome of evolution’.
“My whole journey, everything. I’ve evolved and adapted and adjusted for 16 years. I am the epitome of evolution. When you look up evolution in the dictionary, I want a picture of me next to that bitch like this (gestures).”
Naomi continued, sharing how Natalya told her that she had to ‘find her F-U’.
“Me and Nattie talk, and I learned and got this from Nattie. She always says, ‘find your F-U. She said, find your F-U.’ And like, I get it. I get it, and I think I found it. It’s not like F-U as in like you don’t care or it don’t matter, but it’s just like find that, whatever that string is or that thing that fires you up and that just makes you not give a crap to get to your goals and dreams and where you want to go. I think it’s very hard now with social media. When I started, there wasn’t even Instagram. So to now be in a time where there’s so much criticism, and we’re already as performers hard on ourselves, it can really get to you. It can affect your confidence. It can make you not even want to… to do this anymore, and you just got to find your F-U. Cut out all the noise and push through and just keep going. If you stop, which that may be good for some in certain situations, but also on the other side of that, which I learned during my time away, if you just keep going and see it through, you don’t know what could happen, what could change, where you could be like wrestling is so amazing and incredible and beautiful in that way, and I think that’s what keeps us coming back. Those who understand and connect in that way, you never know what you can be, what can happen, what can be done. It could be tomorrow. It could be next year. For me, it could be 16 years later, and you don’t know, and I think that’s what, for some some of us, I think that’s what drives us. That’s what fuels us, and I just I love that.”
During the WWE Evolution 2025 post show press conference, Naomi would open up about winning the WWE Women’s World Championship. You can read more about that here.
