Booker says it will be like Nancy Kerrigan and Tonya Harding. It will get hot in here and he cannot wait for it to go down. He says it is the youngest Divas champion versus the hottest diva on the roster.
Rich Brennan is with Charlotte in the interview area. He asks Charlotte about what can we expect tonight against Paige.
