Ex-WWE Star Asks ‘Who Should WWE Release To Afford Bringing Me Back?’

WWE

Former WWE star Eva Marie has jokingly claimed there’d have to be “a series of talent releases” in order to bring her back to the company.

After a return in May 2021, Marie’s most recent tenure with WWE came to an end on November 4, 2021, when she was released along with multiple other talents as part of the spree of budgets cuts.

Prior to that return, she’d been with the company from 2013 to 2017 the first time around.

Of course, we’ve seen many WWE talents who were released, including several who were let go the very same day as Marie, make comebacks under the Triple H regime.

When the topic of a potential return came up on social media, Eva Marie jokingly tweeted:

As the highest paid Female #WWE Superstar, my contract could only activate after a series of talent releases in order to free up the capital to cover my contract. But I am down.

Who should @wwe @WWEonFOX cut in order to afford bringing me back? #Evaluation #WWERaw #SmackDown #humble

To be clear, there’s been nothing to suggest a return for Marie is in the cards or been discussed or anything like that.

Marie’s final match was a loss against Doudrop, who’s since returned to being Piper Niven, in September 2021.

Marie actually only had seven matches in that last stint with WWE.

The highest profile of those was a loss to Alexa Bliss at SummerSlam.
