🎀Maven discusses dealing with imposter syndrome during his time as a WWE Superstar.
ಞFrom 2001 to 2005, Maven was a WWE Superstar. The winner of the inaugural season of WWE Tough Enough, Maven was fortunate enough to be in the ring with the likes of The Undertaker, Triple H, Chris Jericho, and more. However, being thrown into the deep end of WWE relatively quickly did lead to feelings of imposter syndrome.
🏅Maven spoke about this during on his popular YouTube channel, where he answered questions from X users. When asked if WWE stars suffer from imposter syndrome, Maven revealed that he believes he struggled with those feelings for his entire career.
"I have to be honest with you, I probably had imposter syndrome my entire time I was in the WWE. There was never a day that I walked into that locker room and didn't have that little bit in the back of my mind, thinking, 'Man, I don't know if I belong in here.' I've talked to other guys who I'd be in the car with, and we were big, silly kids. We just didn't feel like we were at the top of our profession, but we were. I think everybody, when you get to a specific level, has a little bit of imposter syndrome. That's just self-doubt creeping in. WWE wrestlers are certainly no different."
