Lisa Marie Varon (Victoria in WWE) was recently interviewed on the Just Alyx podcast during which she spoke about the origins of her Widow's Peak finisher. Check out some highlights blow:
"Molly Holly went to an independent show, and she came back, and she said, 'Victoria' – we called each other by our characters, we never call each other by our real names ... She came back, 'Victoria, I've got a move for you. I went to an independent show and saw this guy, Roderick Strong, do this move.' And I was the bigger girl of our clan, our show, and I could pick up everybody, so I was the muscle. I was the base, you know, the cheerleading base, catching everybody. And she taught me. We did it on the outside of the ring. She took it, and everybody went (gasps)."
"I think, one time, Lita [kicked out of the widow's peak], and it was Lita, and I got yelled at backstage. I was like, 'Well if anybody's going to kick out of it.' They're like, 'You never let anybody kick out of your finisher without help or a foot on the ropes or something. I don't remember where [or] when the match was. I'll be honest with you. It was before the cage match, but I got a lot of heat backstage."
