Former WWE Name Not Planning On Returning To Wrestling

WWE

Former WWE backstage interviewer Kayla Braxton has addressed her future in the wrestling business after her departure in June 2024.

Braxton was a familiar face on WWE television, also serving as co-host of The Bump and the host of Talking Smack, later SmackDown LowDown, with Paul Heyman.

Heyman would be among the stars to feature in a backstage skit for Braxton’s last day with Bayley having the final word.

In a recent appearance on Insight with Chris Van Vliet, Braxton addressed whether her time was at an end in wrestling, saying:

“Yeah, I think so… I mean, there’s always the possibility that maybe I pop back in for a fun cameo or something down the road. But yeah, I think my time is done.”

She would also reveal that leaving WWE was something she had considered ‘for a while’ ahead of her departure, stating:

“I think it’s something I’ve been kind of contemplating for a while. I think once I stepped down from The Bump, I moved to Los Angeles, it was very clear I was kind of trying to find what my next phase of life was going to be, career-wise.”

Braxton revealed that WWE had been supportive of her decision to leave, with it being an ‘amicable’ parting with the door for a return being ‘always open’.

She has previously revealed that she turned down a commentary role in WWE on a number of occasions.

Braxton, real name Kayla Becker, has recently wrapped filming on her first movie role in the movie Stranglehold.
