LADYSPORTS: Welcome to LadySports, Selene! Tell us, who trained you for the sport?
SELENE GREY: I was trained by PCW in Chicago Ridge, Illinois.

LS: What was your biggest influence to become a wrestler?
SG: My brother was probably my biggest influence, because he bought me a WWE video game for Christmas one year, ever since then I started to look at my options.

LS: What other sports do you have an interest in?
SG: Softball, soccer, baseball, and basketball.

LS: How would you describe yourself in terms of attitude, personality, likes, dislikes, and strengths?
SG: Hmm…okay well, I am pretty easy to get along with, so I would say friendly. I know it sounds like a cliché, but my biggest dislike is any one being mean to animals. I have two pups and I love them to death. My strength would be when I fall down, always getting back up.

LS: What is your most marked characteristic as a wrestler?
SG: My blue hair.

LS: Describe a typical day of training for you. What is most important in your workout?
SG: I would like to say I work on everything all the time, but lately time has been getting away from me. My focus always has to be on abs, though.

LS: How would you best describe your ring style?
SG: Daredevil/High Flyer/Jumper?

LS: What moves are you best known for?
SG: Anything that I can use the ring ropes for, but my finisher would be a MSG (My Shade of Grey), which is a springboard tornado DDT.

LS: Have you ever been injured in the ring?
SG: Yep, plenty of times. My shoulder is killing me right now. I have landed on my noggin a few times, but nothing major, knock on wood.

LS: Who have been your toughest opponents?
SG: I have gone against plenty of great gals, but I would have to say Renee Van Peebbles. I think she and I would have a long-standing rivalry if we could. She always brought the Chicago Connection in the mix, so it was never truly a one-on-one. Maybe one day...

LS: And who are your allies?
SG: Well, I like to think a lot of people are? My fans always have my back, but as for in-ring, I would have to say Matt Creed and David Desire.

LS: What has been your most memorable win?
SG: My last match with PCW, Jay Phoenix and Renee Van Peebles with PL Myers and Kira Riley versus myself and David Desire. The Chicago Connection had been after the both of us separately for some time but with the two of us we were able to get the upper hand!

LS: What was your worst loss?
SG: When I lost my BCW Woman’s title due to getting fake blood poured on me in a First Blood match.

LS: Who is the one wrestler you would most like to face in the ring, but haven't yet?
SG: Not sure…I am up for anyone!

LS: What type of match do you enjoy the most?
SG: Cage.

LS: What is so special about this sport to you?
SG: One word: FUN!

LS: Tell us, what are your fans like?
SG: Super energetic and fun, just like me!

LS: If you had the power, what one thing would you do to improve the sport?
SG: Have all the indy feds work together to help get their information out there.

LS: Where have you wrestled, and what titles have you held?
SG: Indiana (PRW), Illinois, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Connecticut (Covey Pro), Kentucky, and Wisconsin (BCW).

LS: What are your thoughts on women participating in the sport?
SG: Best idea ever!

LS: What was your most unforgettable moment in the sport?
SG: Finding my finisher.

LS: Any regrets?
SG: Nope.

LS: What would you do if you couldn't be in wrestling?
SG: Watching it.

LS: If you were only able to wrestle one more match in your career, who would you most like to face?
SG: Natalia.

LS: What is your personal motto?
SG: If at first you don’t succeed, dust yourself off and try again.

LS: What would make you most happy in life?
SG: To inspire as many people as I can and make them believe anything is possible.

LS: Anything else you’d like to add?
SG: Don’t forget to check out my Facebook page and Twitter for all upcoming events @SeleneGrey!
