#5. WWE veteran comments on sudden retirement
Former Divas Champion, Layla, retired from in-ring action at the age of 38. The veteran recently reflected on her decision, noting that she had done everything she could do at that stage:
“I think in my mind, I was going to keep going and keep going. I think that I was like 38 at that time. So realistically, I’d given it nine years, and I’d done everything that I could possibly do at that time. It was just time to go both for WWE and for myself. I just needed to go because what would I keep doing at that age, and I didn’t want to keep ageing on TV as well. The road is just so rough and that, so would I like to have gone out better? Would I like to have been able to have made a bigger deal about my career retirement? Probably, but I woke up one day and I was on the way to the gym and got to the arena for call time. And I was just like, I don’t want to do this anymore. I don’t want to do this. I’m done. And so I just said, ‘I’m sorry, I just want out.'”
Layla was a part of the Stamford-based promotion for nearly a decade. She announced her retirement in 2015, with her last match coming on 14 April, 2015.
#4. Tiffany Stratton makes a big revelation about her future
Tiffany Stratton recently expressed her desire to work in movies, following which many started questioning her commitment to pro wrestling. However, the former WWE Women’s Champion recently cleared the air, noting that she will be a part of the wrestling business for a long time.
“I love wrestling. Sometimes if I don’t smile enough in my entrance, people think that I’m miserable and I don’t want to be there. Which is so far from the truth.I love wrestling. I love it all. I love doing everything. I love the appearances. I love the media. I’m here for it and I’m here to stay for at least 15 years.”
Tiffany Stratton has been with the Stamford-based promotion since 2021. While she started her main roster career on a high note, the Buff Barbie faded into the shadows after losing the WWE Women’s Championship. She is, however, back to being prominently featured on SmackDown.
#3. Concern over LA Knight’s WWE future
LA Knight has not been involved in any prominent storyline in the last several months. The Megastar is widely popular among fans, but that has not guaranteed him time on TV programming.
Dutch Mantell reflected on the former United States Champion’s absence, noting that there is possibly an underlying reason behind the same:
I’m saying, he’s already established, and there’s no get-over time for him. You put him out there, the people know who he is and I know who he is, and he can just go from there. To me, that was like, a lot of times, that’s what creative looks for. Who knows this guy? Well, everybody knows LA Knight. So it should be just a layup for him, but we’ll see. Unless, I’m saying there’s an underlying reason, which in wrestling there usually is.”
LA Knight was involved in programs with top names before WrestleMania 42. However, WWE’s booking of the Megastar in the last couple of months has been questioned by many.
#2. IYO SKY confirms marriage with WWE NXT star
While IYO SKY was rumored to be in a relationship with recent WWE joinee Evil/Naraku, there was never an official confirmation from either side. However, the rumors have now been put to rest as the Genius of the Sky recently revealed that she’s married to the NXT star.
The duo shared the news on their social media handles, sending a heartwarming message. They also posted a few marriage pictures.
#1. Ronda Rousey confirms retirement
Ronda Rousey recently made her MMA return after being away for nearly a decade. The Baddest Woman on the Planet faced Gina Carano in her return bout and defeated the latter in under 30 seconds. After the match, Rousey made it clear that she’s done and won’t be returning to the cage in the future.
Ronda Rousey was also a part of WWE for a few years, during which she won multiple world titles. She left the company in 2023.
