WWE Hall of Famer Sharmell Huffman, famously known as Queen Sharmell, has opened up about the whirlwind journey leading to her 2022 induction. In a candid conversation with former WWE backstage interviewer McKenzie Mitchell, the charismatic star revealed the unexpected challenges and triumphs that culminated in her iconic moment.
Despite the glamour and prestige associated with the Hall of Fame, Sharmell confessed to experiencing a rollercoaster of emotions in the lead-up to the ceremony. Remarkably, she hadn’t even started drafting her induction speech until the morning of the event. While the pressure mounted, Sharmell remained calm and confident, assuring the writing team, “I don’t know what I’m gonna say, but I got this.” True to her word, she finalized her speech just hours before the ceremony without any revisions, showcasing her incredible poise and professionalism.
Sharmell’s induction night was a magical culmination of her illustrious career. Sharing the spotlight with her legendary husband, Booker T, who is a two-time Hall of Famer, made the occasion even more special. The couple’s iconic “King and Queen” reign, where Sharmell managed Booker T following his King of the Ring victory, was a focal point of her induction speech.
