Former WWE star recalls a heartbreaking miscarriage that led to a mental breakdown on the same night she was set to appear on Raw.
Speaking on Twitter, Jillian Hall showed appreciation to WWE and John Laurinaitis for how they handled her breakdown in 2009.
She wrote:
“So many people want to bash WWE for how they treat their talent, but it’s a business, like any other. It’s a tv show! Did u know in spring (I think) 2009 I lost a baby while on the active roster? I had a complete mental breakdown in LA.
“I was booked for RAW but John Laurinaitis handled it so gracefully. He got me on a flight home and found me a dr immediately for intense therapy for the next 6 weeks. I was off the road for a bit and checked on frequently. They made sure I was totally ok before returning to work.”
