After almost a year away from wrestling following her and Sasha Banks’ WWE walkout back on May 16, Trinity Fatu (Naomi) made her wrestling return at last night’s IMPACT Wrestling tapings.
Trinity spoke to NBC Chicago to discuss her return to wrestling after almost a year away.
Trinity spoke about being in IMPACT, noting that she feels overwhelmed by the support she’s had over the last year.
She said:
“Being back in wrestling and being with my pack in a place where I feel so welcome and just for the opportunity and just receiving all the love, it was very, very overwhelming, and I really felt it in my heart like I really did. I couldn’t even hide the emotion.
“I’ve been wrestling 14 years now, and then one day everything, everything just changed, and I felt like my whole world was turned upside down and things were shuffled around. It took a little time to just process everything and really sort out what I want to do, where I want to be.”
When asked about her WWE departure, Trinity said that she believes it was a blessing in disguise, as it has allowed her to grow.
She explained:
“I feel like it was a blessing in disguise. I feel that it’s allowed me to grow and become better in every way, in every aspect. Show me how strong I really am. And now I’ve got this new journey ahead of me, these new goals, and I’m excited and ready to step into this new chapter.”
Trinity’s in-ring debut for IMPACT will be taped at tonight’s IMPACT Wrestling tapings, when she takes on KiLynn King.
Mercedes Mone was present at last night’s tapings to support Trinity in her IMPACT debut, which is set to air next Thursday.
