Her heart pounded as she held the camera in her hand. What began as a dream became reality around her within moments.
As a child Kirsty used to run around her parents living room placing her cousin in 'The Walls Of Jericho' and receiving many of 'The Rocks Elbow'. Being a wrestler was all she dreamed of until that fateful evening.
Wrestling had always been a part of her family. In her early years her mother met her stepfather at a local wrestling show. A year later they were married and life couldn't be better. It was her stepfather that introduced her to the WWE.
Every Saturday morning they would settle down together and watch the re-runs of Raw is War and SmackDown. Living in the UK, she was never given the opportunity to watch them as they aired live. Besides on a Saturday the shows were censored allowing the young girl the reassurance of nightmare-less evenings as she slept in her bed.
Of course things wouldn't always be fine and dandy.
It was her eleventh birthday when everything changed. Her whole life was torn apart when her mother gave the news of her stepfather leaving them. Her mother had decided it was time for a change and the pair was moving to the United States of America. August 2001 saw the beginning of a new life for Kirsty, right before the attacks of 9/11.
Kirsty reached fifteen without any problems. By Christmas 2005 tragedy struck again. She was travelling in a car with her mother on their way to the groceries store. As they travelled a speeding car coming from the side ignored the red lights and slammed into the passenger side of the car.
Kirsty's knee was shattered into pieces.
It took two full years of operations and physiotherapy to mend the teens broken body and spirit. She was told she'd never be able to walk on it properly again. Her dream of wrestling was over.
Her whole life all she'd dreamed of was to wrestle. And now thanks to a drunk driver, that dream was gone. Reality sunk in after many painful months and Kirsty decided, no matter what, she would be in the wrestling business no matter what it took.
That's where we find ourselves now. Kirsty finished school and instead of going to college and working on a degree. She decided to use her summer to try and get herself a job at the WWE. She'd swore if she began sweeping floors and making coffee all day would promise her the starting point to her career she'd take it.
Yet for Kirsty, it wasn't coffee she was making, or sweeping floors. Kirsty had landed herself a job operating a video camera at ringside for the WWE.
