Kayla Braxton published a statement in June 2024 confirming her departure from WWE.
Braxton was asked during her appearance on The Nikki & Brie Show if her contract had expired.
She said, โI was under contract. Announcers, we operate very differently. I just realized, within myself, after eight years; Iโve done everything I can do here. You know how the schedule is at WWE. Itโs very hard to (accomplish) anything else you want to do. I just felt like I was starting to miss out on opportunities outside of the company.
I wasnโt doing much anymore at my former position. I just had to make the decision, not knowing necessarily what I was about to do in that moment, but I had to walk away. It was all amicable, I just knew it was time for me to peace out.โ
