Ruby Riott Posts Statement On Her WWE Release
Ruby Riott has commented on her WWE release.
Riott was part of six releases made by WWE on Wednesday, June 2. Riott was signed by WWE in 2016 and last wrestled on the May 28 episode of WWE SmackDown, teaming with Morgan in a loss to WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Natalya & Tamina in a non-title match.
Taking to Instagram, Riott posted the following message:
Well… here it goes.
I’ve never been good at this sort of stuff. Yesterday in a matter of minutes, my life changed very drastically. But after some tears, some panic and a full box of Oreos, I was able look back at how lucky I’ve been to accomplish what have. I never thought I’d make it to WWE. I’ve been honored to be apart of a Squad of the most incredible women I’ve ever met, I’ve gotten to see the world, share locker rooms with some of the most talented women I know, some of which I’ve made lifelong friendships with. I’ve gotten to meet fans that were just like me, introverted kids, who never quite felt like they fit in. And between the locker room and those fans, I felt like I belonged and I’m so grateful for that feeling. With that, I am overwhelmed by the amount of calls/texts/tweets and support that I have received from former coworkers, friends, family and fans. Thank you so much for the kind words. You’ll never know how much it helped. As for what’s next….in the beginning “Heidi Lovelace” was given to me, at the end “Ruby Riott” was taken away. So I don’t know what I’ll be called or where I’ll end up. But please know this is far from over. Thank you.
Liv Morgan and Bayley had high praise for Riott after news of her release was official. You can view Morgan’s comments by clicking here and Bayley’s comments by clicking here.
