Former WWE broadcaster Kayla Becker, fka Kayla Braxton, has addressed her decision to leave the company, following her exit in June.
On June 22, Kayla announced that she would be leaving WWE following the June 28 SmackDown taping at Madison Square Garden.
Speaking with Nikki and Brie Garcia on the Nikki & Brie Show, Kayla noted that she made the decision to leave WWE because she had done everything she wanted to do with the company, and felt like she was starting to miss out on opportunities away from WWE.
Noting that her departure was amicable, Kayla said:
“I was under contract. Announcers, we operate very differently. I just realized, within myself, after eight years; I’ve done everything I can do here. You know how the schedule is at WWE.
“It’s very hard to (accomplish) anything else you want to do. I just felt like I was starting to miss out on opportunities outside of the company. I wasn’t doing much anymore at my former position.
“I just had to make the decision, not knowing necessarily what I was about to do in that moment, but I had to walk away. It was all amicable, I just knew it was time for me to peace out.”
Kayla recently confirmed that she has been filming for an upcoming movie.
