Lisa Marie Varon, also known as Victoria, is a pioneer in women’s wrestling for her contributions to the industry during her TNA Wrestling and WWE runs.
Varon worked for WWE from 2000 to 2009 before moving on to TNA, where she continued to thrive. She returned to WWE in 2021, making a surprise appearance in the Women’s Royal Rumble match.
During a recent GAW TV episode, the hosts discussed their experiences backstage at shows early in their careers. Varon then mentioned feeling uncomfortable backstage at an AEW event.
“I even felt that at AEW. I went backstage to go find Sarah (Stock). She goes, ‘Are you gonna come back here to say hi to me?’ I go, ‘Um, can you meet me at the curtain?’ I go, ‘Oh no, all the new talent’ and then of course when I went back there, I got the look like, what the f*ck is she doing here? Excuse my language. I felt uncomfortable. Only Mark Henry, Sarah, (Christopher) Daniels and just the people that we knew, even some of the people that we knew in the past, they were like, ‘Are you gonna watch the second show?’ And I go, ‘Let’s go.’ I felt very uncomfortable.”
Varon also claimed in April that she was “treated like sh*t” backstage at a WWE event.
