Catanzaro became a breakout star on the show in 2014 when, during season six, she became the first woman to complete a city finals course. Her last run as a competitor came in 2017 during season nine.
After signing with WWE in 2017, Catanzaro enjoyed success in both NXT and on the main roster, holding both the NXT and WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships alongside partner Kayden Carter. The duo was part of a round of talent releases in May 2025.
This return to American Ninja Warrior, in a commentary role, marks Catanzaro’s first major project since leaving WWE, with her 90-day non-compete set to expire in mid-August.
