WWE star Maxxine Dupri shares Vince McMahon’s request for her joining day with the company

The WWE star Maxxine Dupri has opened up about an unusual request she received from WWE Chairman Vince McMahon on her very first day with the company. Speaking during an appearance on the Nikki and Brie Show, Dupri recalled how she arrived at the WWE expecting a routine first day of work, but before arriving, she was asked to appear in a specific black outfit. According to Dupri, McMahon asked her to wear a black dress for joining the company on the first day, and the WWE star was caught off guard by the request because she did not anticipate anything related to her wardrobe during her introduction to WWE.

Dupri explained that she was initially confused and nervous, as she had only joined the company and did not know what to expect from it. She eventually complied with the request and later met McMahon and discussed potential opportunities for her in WWE.

Recalling her WWE journey, the WWE star spoke about how her career changed rapidly after WWE signed her just 30 days following a successful tryout. She relocated to Orlando, leaving behind the business she had recently opened.Following that, she began training at the WWE Performance Center, was unexpectedly transitioned into a valet role, suffered a fractured ankle during training, and then was called up to the main roster within weeks. Amid so many moments, what stood out in her memory was when former WWE chairman Vince McMahon asked her to wear a black dress on her very first day with the company.

Recalling the incident, the former Women's Intercontinental Champion said during her interview on "The Nikki & Brie Show."

She added, “And my first day...I landed and they said, 'Hey, Vince wants you in a black dress and heels.' Well, I packed 100 outfits. I did not pack a black dress...I didn't even think I packed heels because I couldn't wear a heel.”Dupri further added about her first day, which was also very chaotic and fun, said, "I went to the mall. I found a black dress. I found these super high heels, and I can't even step in them because my ankle won't go like this [shows a downward motion with her hand]...It

was originally supposed to be an in-ring promo, and I can't get to the ring. So, we're doing rehearsals, and I'm like, 'If the ring shakes, I'm going to fall over.

' They're like, 'We'll just bring you out in the dark. It'll be fine.' That was a very chaotic day."

Since then, Dupri has become a regular television performer and has gained popularity through her work with Chad Gable and the Alpha Academy faction.
