Jessica Hatch recently took some time out of her scheduled to take part in
an interview for
www.PWMania.com. Jessica Hatch speaks on the 2007 Diva Search,
wanting to work with Torrie Wilson, having trouble with another

Andy Steven: Hello Jessica Hatch , firstly I would like to thank
you for taking time out of your busy schedule to take part in this
interview for
www.PWMania.com. What's it like to be involved in the 2007 WWE
Diva Search?
Jessica
Hatch: It is an amazing experience. By far the most exciting thing I
have ever been a part of. I'm doing everything I can to reach my fans and
help them learn about me by doing radio shows all over the states,
responding to fan mail, and promoting myself by handing out diva cards I
created. I look forward to each and everyday I am blessed with to get up
and work hard to get closer and closer to the finish line.
Andy Steven: How did you hear about the Diva Search contest and
what made you enter it?
Jessica Hatch: I received an email from my modelling agency here in
Houston Texas in regards to the casting. I jumped on the opportunity to
audition being that it was a combination of both athleticism and acting
skills. These are my two passions. I love sports and love acting. I then
got a call back to attend the 2007 diva search casting call in Huntington
Beach California. It was the best feeling ever to know I was in the
running to be the next WWE Diva.
Andy Steven: Having played sports in college, do you think you have
a slight athletic advantage over the other 7 contestants, are you looking
forward to wrestling in a ring?
Jessica Hatch: I definitely think I have an advantage over the
other contestants due to my athletic background but it’s an advantage I
have worked for all my life. I think of it as better qualified not so much
an advantage. God Blessed me with athletic talent and I am thankful to be
given an opportunity to use it. I am really looking forward to wrestling
in the ring. I am ready to run circles around those girls.
Andy
Steven: What kind of knowledge of wrestling did you have before the
competition? Were you a fan, or was this generally your first time being
exposed to the business?
Jessica Hatch: I watched wresting growing up like when Hulk Hogan
was a big star but over the past years I've been so involved with college
and collegiate sports that I can’t say I have been given the opportunity
to watch it as much as I would have loved to. There honestly isn't
anything on television I have kept up with. I rarely sit down long enough
to turn on the TV. Ever since the diva search I have been learning more
and more about the industry and it is so exciting. I love watching and
learning about it all. I just can't wait to be a part of it myself and
make my fans yell and scream for me while get down and dirty in the ring.
Andy Steven: For those unaware of your past projects in
entertainment, what are some of the things you've done and which project
did you most enjoy?
Jessica Hatch: In the past I have competed in several fitness
competitions. I started out in the Miss Galaxy which included an obstacle
course and beauty pageant. I went on to compete in the Women’s Tri-Fit
which also included the an obstacle and beauty pageant and in addition it
had several strength tests such as pull-ups, sit-ups, push-ups, step-ups
and a shuttle run. I love being able to use my athletic ability to compete
along with looks. If you visit
www.jessicadhatch.com you can see all the other fun and exciting
competitions I competed in.
Andy
Steven: If you could work with any male or female wrestler in an angle
for WWE, who would you choose and why?
Jessica Hatch: I would love to work with Torrie Wilson. I feel as
though she would be a blast at work with. She and I have a fitness
competition background so I feel as though we could relate in a lot of
ways.
Andy Steven: How do the wrestling fans compare to fans of other
programs you've worked with?
Jessica Hatch: They are the best of the best. They get so into it
which makes the wrestlers that much better. They push us to be better than
we are and take it to the next level. I love watching there excitement and
how dedicated they are to their Superstars and Divas.
Andy
Steven: What would you call a good night out in town?
Jessica Hatch: A good night in town would start off at a fun
restaurant where sports are on because you know there will be a much
better crowd in a place like that. After enjoying dinner and drinks there
we would head over to a club where the music is popin so I can do my thing
on the dance floor. I love to dance. Hip hop is my favorite when I want to
get down and drop it like its hot. Other days I want to be spun around on
a wooden dance floor to a nice country song. Some clubs have a little of
both. Those are the ideal places to go.
Andy Steven: Have you made any friendships with people in the WWE
or any of the other Diva Search contestants?
Jessica Hatch: I definitely have. I make friends everywhere I go. I
love people and anyone that can carry on a conversation is a friend of
mine. All the other Divas our friends of mine outside the competition. We
really bonded throughout the competition and decided upon having a get
together ever year at one of each others places in the different states
and cities we are all from. The casting directors, editors, sound guys,
video editing crew, host and everyone else at the competition became a
friend of mine. They are a wonderful group of people that I look forward
to working with.
Andy
Steven: Were there any Diva Search girls that had a problem with you
or any of the other contestants?
Jessica Hatch: JKim and I had a little spiff over a ball being
called out when she thought it was in, which was the winning point for us
blonde bombshells in the volleyball game. She also was against me in the
limbo competition and said I cheated. That’s her opinion. The referee is
the one who makes the calls and the ball was out and I made it under the
limbo stick so she can just sizzle her little temper and get over it. I
think she feels I am her biggest threat in the competition so she over
reacts at situations to try and make herself look better and get more
attention.
Andy Steven: How would you feel if you won the 2007 WWE Diva Search
and received the WWE 1 year contract?
Jessica Hatch: I would be estatic!!!!!!!!!!!! I would start
training right away so I could start fighting in the ring ASAP! I am ready
to make my fans happy!
Andy Steven: What do you think makes you different compared to the
other Diva Search contestants and why should fans vote for you?
Jessica Hatch: I am different because I care. I am so into my fans
and responding to there questions and learning what makes them happy. I
also think my athletic background makes me different because I am on a
whole other level than them when it comes to sports. Wrestling is about
being an all around athlete and that’s what I am so when compared to the
other Diva Contestants I am a step ahead already which means the sooner I
can starts wrestling in the ring.
Andy
Steven: You have modelled for several magazines including Budweiser
and Maxim, would you consider posing for Playboy?
Jessica Hatch: It would involve some thought and contemplation. I
respect all the girls that have done it in the past. It’s a very tasteful
magazine. We will just have to wait and see......
Andy Steven: I would like to thank you very much once again for
taking this time to take part in this interview for
www.PWMania.com,
I wish you the best of luck in the future, do you have any messages to say
to your fans.
Jessica Hatch: I love all my fans sooooooo much. Yall are amazing
and are really the reason for the season. Yall make it all happen that’s
for sure. Keep voting at
