Carmella provides an update.
Back in March, Carmella told her side of the story in regards to her departure from WWE, detailing her complaints with the company and ultimately saying that she feels like she was punished for having a child.
Just a few weeks later during WrestleMania weekend, Carmella sat down with The Wrestling Classic for a new interview. This gave her the opportunity to give an update on her current state, saying that she feels blessed and grateful for her time with the company.
“I feel like in the moment, it was very jarring. I was shocked. I didn't get a lot of notice, to me that’s what kind of was like, wow. But, I’m so happy. I’m so so happy. Everything happens for a reason, I feel so blessed with my time in WWE. I’m just so grateful for my time in WWE and I’m grateful that at this point in my life, I can kind of pivot and focus on what’s next and just live my best life.”
When asked about her future in wrestling, Carmella stated that she does want a break.
“I want a break. Even though I’ve been away for 2 years, I was still under contract. For the first time in 12 years, I’m like, ‘Oh, I’m Leah, I’m not Carmella.’ But, who is Leah without wrestling? It’s kind of time to have a funeral for Carmella, she is in the past, but I will for sure hope that someday I go back, whether it’s for a one off or for a Rumble or something. It’s in my blood and I love it."
