Stevie Turner on WWE NXT release: ‘Can’t believe I’m gonna get to wrestle again’
Stevie Turner has commented further on her WWE release.
On social media Saturday, the now former NXT and Evolve star made note that she hadn’t wrestled in a while.
“Can’t believe I’m gonna get to wrestle again,” she wrote.
In recent months, she had been mostly in non-wrestling roles, serving as an assistant to NXT GM Ava alongside Robert Stone. She had also been making appearances in Evolve as the General Manager/Prime Minister of that brand. She hadn’t wrestled since February, when she and Lainey Reid lost to Sol Ruca and Zaria at a NXT house show.
Turner was among releases in NXT that took place on Friday. The other notable name was Wes Lee, who had been a former Tag Team Champion and North American Champion on the brand. Lance Anoa’i was the first to announce he had been released from his contract. All releases have a 30-day no compete clause.
In addition to the NXT releases, several ID talents announced that they had either asked for their release or were let go from their contracts, including Zayda Steel and Kylie Rae.
