You can check out what Ember has to say in the ring on tonight's episode of NXT on USA Network at 8 PM EST.Athena is a professional wrestler known for working under the name Ember Moon in WWE and NXT. It worked like a charm though, and we can't wait to see what Moon does now that she's back on the black and gold brand. You're like, 'Are they going to like this? Are they not going to like this? Do they think this is crap?' And then with Retribution just debuting, we were trying to make sure it was so far away from what Retribution was doing at the time, so it was a whole thing." "I was creeping in the chats, yo, because it's very nerve-racking. That's also why there were multiple belts, and Moon would check to see what people were guessing. That included the mix of a male and female voice to throw people off track, and it worked like a charm. It was a whole thing, but it came out so frick'n good, and that's kudos to the NXT creative team for that, because they're absolutely amazing." (Photo: NXT) I think at one point in time we were trying to find the truck with my face on it too.
I think we were trying to find chairs with my face on it at one point in time. We had a whole bunch of old NXT posters, and then we had rings, ring ropes, and then like the one TakeOver flyer, and then there was another one, another TakeOver flyer with me on it. Let's go!' It just went by so quick, but I'm so happy that people were guessing because I wanted Masked Singer elements. "And then they were like, 'Let's put you on a motorcycle.' I was like 'Okay, let's do it, brah. So, there were a lot of influences, and when you meld that all together you have this amazing video package," Moon said. So, the influences for the first video were Mad Max, Hardcore Henry, which is the first-person action movie, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, and probably sprinkled in some Cyber Punk-ish stuff in there as well. I came up with the first video, and it was an amazing collaborative effort after that.
Speaking of those video packages, Moon broke down what inspired them, and the combination of elements is amazing. They made me way more badass than I actually am, sometimes." They took an idea that I had for these video packages and they made it times a 1000. So I didn't know what the reaction was going to be until the point where I was like shaking, shaking at one point in time, but the NXT creative team is so amazing.
WWE MOON TV
"I didn't know if they were going to be like, 'Who is this chic?' Because let's be honest, I've been off TV for a year, even though I've been on Backstage and done some E-Sports stuff, I've tried to stay in the eye, but we all know our WWE fans love WWE and they watch WWE. I don't even know if he knew it was me, but absolutely amazing, thank you, Bo, you're the real MVP," Moon said. "Can I just give a shout out to Bo Dallas real quick for running defense for your girl! I don't even know if he knew it was me, but he started posting, 'Oh, the original NXT champ, if you bolieve.' I love Bo so much. We're good to go.' And I was like, 'Oh, crap.' So the first phone call I made was to Hunter, and I told him, 'Hey, I just got cleared, what are we doing?' And he goes, 'Oh, snap, really?' And I said, 'I wasn't expecting it,' but he's like, 'How does it feel?' I said, 'It feels good, let's just take it a little slow, make sure we're all going to be okay.'" That was probably mid-August, and they were like, 'All right, everything looks good, MRI came back clear. "I was just clear to start that process to return to the ring. "So, that's the nerve-racking aspect, and that doesn't mean that I was cleared to return to WWE immediately," Moon said. The surgeon was like, 'All right, cool, in six weeks when you come in to visit, we're either going to do second surgery or we might clear you.' I had a lot of complications with my foot and everything. "It's weird because I found out the day that I was probably going to find out if I was going to have a second surgery. "So, it's crazy, because I think in January we kind of were thinking, like what would you want to do?' I was like, 'Man, I think I want to go back to NXT.' Hunter said 'Huh? I kind of like that', so back in January, that's kind of when that idea popped up," Moon said.
