Zoey Stark Defies Jealousy: Rising WWE Star Talks Success and Teaming with Legends
The former NXT Women’s Tag Team Champion, Zoey Stark, has seen an impressive and rather unexpected rise in her wrestling career. Recently, she opened up about the ensuing envy from her peers in the locker room after sharing the limelight with WWE Hall of Famer, Becky Lynch, and Trish Stratus.
At just 29 years old, Stark is not only making waves in the main roster but is also rubbing shoulders with the likes of the WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus. This rapid ascent has taken even her by surprise, as she revealed during her recent appearance on the Zaslow Show.
She assumed her main roster push would be a gradual transition. Yet, her quick elevation within the ranks of WWE caught her off-guard, leading to a considerable amount of chatter in the locker room.
Defying Expectations at Night of Champions 2023
In an unforgettable moment at Night of Champions 2023, Stark joined forces with the iconic Trish Stratus, which turned out to be a game-changer. They emerged victorious in a hard-fought battle against the formidable Becky Lynch. This victory solidified Stark’s place among the top performers of WWE.
Then, just a few weeks later, Stark stunned the world again. This time, she faced off with and defeated Lynch, affectionately known as ‘The Man’, on an episode of Monday Night RAW. This victory not only elevated her status within the company but also gave her more screen time, resulting in a buzz of jealousy from her peers.
Stark’s Philosophy on Jealousy and Success
Despite the rumors and locker room talk, Stark remains unfazed. She expressed her views on jealousy and competition within the WWE, asserting that she’s in the ring for herself, not for the approval or acceptance of others.
She passionately declared,
“I’m not worried about jealousy, I’m here for me, not for them. If they want to be in my position, they better work as hard, if not harder, than I do, which is nearly impossible. No one is going to work as hard as I do.”
Stark’s philosophy on success is simple: it’s the fruit of hard work, dedication, and resilience. As she points out, if anyone else covets her spot, they should be prepared to match, if not surpass, her work ethic, which she confidently claims is “nearly impossible.”
Looking Forward: Stark’s Future in WWE
With her tremendous success in the past few months, the future looks bright for Zoey Stark. The former NXT star’s relentless work ethic and unwavering focus have set her on a path to greatness. Stark is not just turning heads within the WWE universe, but she’s also breaking barriers, proving that with grit and determination, anyone can rise to the top.
It’s clear that despite the whispers of jealousy, Stark is more focused on carving her name in the annals of WWE history, confident in her abilities, and more than ready for whatever challenges lie ahead.
