What are Kali Armstrong's initial thoughts on her match with Jada Parker?
Yo, what's going on, Busted Open Nation, and thanks for tuning in to another edition of the After Dark Podcast. It's me, it's OG of AD, it's Uncle Bully, sitting down with Callie Armstrong, former Evolve Women's Champion, current NXT star, current LFG Season 3 star, world record holder in the Sprint Relay. What has this woman not done? So excited to talk to Callie right here on the After Dark Podcast. This is the Busted Open Podcast. I'm very excited and happy to bring in my next guest. I've been putting her over on the show for a long time. I've also put her over to her face. You earn everything you get with Uncle Bully. And Callie Armstrong is definitely earning everything. A former and first evolved women's champion, three-time NCAA All-American.
I could go on and on and on. And she's got a world record.
How did Kali Armstrong feel about her first win in NXT?
Kurt Angle has a gold medal, but Callie Armstrong has a world record. Callie, how are you tonight?
Oh, yeah. Let's go. I appreciate the intro.
I'm doing awesome. Good, good. I'm diving right into it. You kicked off the night against Jada Parker on NXT. That first match on any show is so important. You get the win. Just remind me, this is your first win officially on NXT, correct?
Technically second. My very first win was against Skylar Ray two weeks ago on Revenge, first week of Revenge.
Okay, okay. I would say that this win a little bit bigger for you, Jada.
What emotions did Kali experience before her match?
Absolutely no pushover, a very tough woman. Tell me how you're feeling about your second win in NXT, albeit probably the biggest so far for you.
I'm feeling high. Honestly, like that match, we went to war, like from the jump, like she ain't no pushover. And I knew I was going to have to step it up and,
get with the program and that's exactly what i did and i went out there and i got the win and i feel amazing like i'm like dang like we really went out there and did that like we went to war can you can you take me through your emotions or your thought process right before your match like what's going through your mind like you and jada got in each other's face last week in the locker room Jada is a woman who is going to impose her will on you. Could be a pseudo bully at times the way she tries to push the other women around. Like, what's going through your mind right as you're going through the curtain?
One thing about me is I'm always going to be prepared. Like... So it was kind of weird because I kind of felt like a sense of calm. Like I wasn't super hype. I wasn't like pump. I kind of felt calm. And I think that was because I knew I was ready. I knew what I was setting myself up for. I knew what I was about to walk into. And I knew I was ready for whatever. So right before I went out there, I felt calm. I want my music hit. I'm like, all right, let's get it. Then I'm doing my entrance and I look over at her. And it just pissed me off. So that's why I just went up and got in her face.
How does Kali Armstrong compare her wrestling experience to her track career?
And now we jaw jacking like, oh yeah, it's time. It's go time. So it just slowly built and built and built. And we're from calm to turning up like, oh yeah, it's time. Let's get it.
And I think you got in her head a little bit right at the beginning of the match. I don't even know if you realize this or not. Like, you came in. You got face to face with her. You shoved her. She shoved you. But then you turned your back on her. And I was like, oh, my God. Like, I wonder how Jade is going to feel about this. And she didn't go after you.
I thought that was interesting, too, because once I turned around, I was like, this is dangerous. Like, she could attack me right now. But I kind of felt like a good sense of danger. Like, I wish she would. Like, I'm ready to go right now if she do. But I was funny that you mentioned that because I thought about that. Like, dang, I'm turning my back on her. That's disrespectful.
What challenges did Kali face transitioning from track to wrestling?
You might want to think about not doing that in the future just in case, just in case. So you said you have this sense of calm. So let me take you back to, you're a sprinter, you're a relay runner, right? Like tell me exactly what you do in running.
Yes, so I'm a sprinter.
