Ruby Soho Thinking About Life After Pro Wrestling

Any pro wrestler will tell you that a career in the ring can be fleeting and that it’s always wise to have an exit plan - or just any plan - for when you’ve wrestled your last.

Ruby Soho is already contemplating what life beyond wrestling could look like, and admitted that she has more years behind her than left in front:

"These last couple years are the first years that I have, not like thought about retiring anytime soon or anything, but it's been about 12 years that I've been doing this and I feel it a lot more," Soho said during a Q&A session at Galaxycon. "It takes a lot more for me to recover from matches than it used to. After each one, I'm hurting a little bit more. It's just gotten me to start thinking about life after wrestling, which before, I had blinders on, 'this is what I'm doing.' I'm not necessarily preparing for it, but I also want to know my interests outside of this. This will still always be the driving force behind everything that I'm doing right now and I love it more than anything and I'm going to keep doing it as long as my body will allow me, but I'm held together with tooth picks and bubble gum at this point [laughs]. I think I have more years behind me than ahead of me, but I'm going to do this for as long as I can."
