WWE ID prospect announces departure
Just a few months after joining the program, Veronica Haven has announced her departure from WWE ID.
Haven wrestled as Fallyn Grey on the indies before being awarded an ID contract at the end of March. She was given the name “Veronica Haven” after joining the program and competed a couple times on Evolve while signed to WWE ID. But Haven revealed today that she is no longer an ID prospect. At only 22 years old, she’ll continue to pursue wrestling as a career while also delving into singing, songwriting, and acting.
A trademark for “Veronica Haven” was filed by WWE in March. While announcing her departure today, Haven revealed Veronica West as the name she’ll be using going forward.
- Unfortunately, my time as a WWE ID Prospect has come to an end. Even having the opportunity to work with and say I was a part of the WWE in the ID program is so much to be grateful for.
- I learned a lot at the Performance Center, and look fondly on all of the memories and friends I made along the way. I’m superrr young and at 22 years old, with less than 3 years in the wrestling industry, I was able to wrestle on Evolve and represent the WWE.
- I have soooo much room to progress and learn in this business, so I can confidently say this is NOT the end of my journey. I’ll still be wrestling and this time be able to also pursue my other talents, such as singing, songwriting, and acting.
- I want to thank all of the mentors and PC coaches who invested time in me.
- Fallyn Grey and Veronica Haven helped pave the way to a newer, more artistic, authentic, and unapologetic version of myself.
- You don’t need wings to keep flying when your heart refuses to quit.
- xoxo,
- Veronica West
Haven is from the state of Arizona and started her in-ring career there for the Arizona Wrestling Federation.
Before joining WWE ID, Haven had a WWE tryout this February. The ID program offers resources to indie wrestlers while establishing a potential pathway for them to join NXT down the line.
