Priscilla Kelly deletes social media after ‘influx of violent messages’
Priscilla Kelly — formerly known as Gigi Dolin in WWE NXT — has deactivated her social media accounts amid a controversy that has seen her receive an “influx of violent messages.”
On Sunday, it was announced that Kelly would be heading to Israel this April to compete for indie promotion IPWA at their Passover Bash 2026 event. Kelly promoted the booking on her X account and received backlash from fans for agreeing to wrestle in Israel amid the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. In response, Kelly posted a statement announcing that she would no longer be appearing.
“I have made the decision to not travel to Israel for the show that was announced earlier,” she wrote. “My intention was never to make a political statement, but to entertain those who were not tied to horrific humanitarian crisis, I do not want to be a part of this any further or give the idea that I condone the actions of the government in any way. I apologize for any harm this may have caused.”
Kelly then deactivated her accounts on X and Instagram soon after.
“Due to an influx of violent messages, I’ll be taking some time away from social media,” she tweeted. “This is about safety and well-being. I appreciate the support and understanding.”
Kelly departed NXT in May 2025 when she was released amid a round of roster cuts. She now competes on the indies for promotions like Game Changer Wrestling.
