WWE Star Left The Company Due To Bullying

WWE

A former WWE talent has revealed they left the company due to being bullied when they were called up from developmental.

In September 2007, Krissy Vaine appeared on WWE SmackDown, attacking Torrie Wilson to set up a storyline between the two where Vaine was to be revealed as Wilson’s younger sister.

However, Vaine ended up leaving the company shortly after, and never had a match on TV.

She’s now explained that she quit WWE due to being bullied, and because the company had a European tour coming up that she didn’t want to be part of due to the bullying.

Speaking with Wrestling with Heart, Vaine explained:

“I was the first one from developmental to get brought up. We all got shipped to FCW, some people got let go, some people… whatever happened, happened.

“I was now in FCW with the Bellas and Nattie, I think Nattie and I were the only two left standing from Deep South.

“So they call me up and I’m like the first out of my class. There’s no social media then to where I could form any friendships, so I go up, and I felt like I was bullied.

“I should have been tougher than I was. I should have had tools, I probably likely should have told a higher-up what was happening, but I’m also from the generation that… we don’t tell. If somebody’s being s**tty to you, you either tough it out or, like, go.

“After two weeks of that, I was supposed to be on a three-week European tour and I said, ‘There is no way that I can go on a three-week European tour. These people are going to destroy me.’

“It was hard for me because I’m from a small town, I was always on homecoming court and cheerleading, very popular, same on the indies.

“So I didn’t realize at the time that people that were being ugly to me, it was just like jealousy, or a, ‘Let’s get her out of here’ thing, because I was obviously getting pushed into a big storyline that I did not know. I wasn’t privy to that information.

“So I ended up quitting before the three-week European tour.

“And I was already taking a lot of Xanax at that time to numb everything. We didn’t do therapy back then. We didn’t do mental health. So it was really challenging. I was on so much Xanax that I couldn’t feel anything, so I was like, ‘Screw it, I’m just gonna walk away.'”
