Overview
- Monroe disclosed during a TMZ Inside The Ring interview over WWE SummerSlam weekend that she was asked to appear on Love Island many years ago and was approached again recently and declined both times.
- She said the show's staged, intimate challenges and the way contestants often use the platform to build careers rather than find genuine relationships made the format a poor fit for her.
- Monroe added she would probably be eliminated quickly if she went on the show, describing the idea as "short and sweet" and saying she does not share that level of personal exposure.
- The comments were made as part of Monroe's current rise in WWE, where she moved from AEW to NXT, held the NXT Women’s North American Championship, and made her SmackDown main-roster debut in June without having completed an in-ring main-roster match.
- She also warned against dating fellow wrestlers because of travel, scheduling and jealousy, a remark that underscores why some performers may avoid crossover reality TV that requires intimate public exposure.
