Former WWE NXT Superstar Amari Miller is interested in facing off against Kylie Rae at some point in the future.
Speaking with Julie Cutler for “Title Match Network,” Miller expressed her desire to face off against Kylie Rae. She said,
“Kylie Rae, Smiley Kylie. I met her at SHIMMER years ago, and I’ve always wanted to have a match with her but then, she got signed to AEW, and then broke her collarbone. So I haven’t been able to wrestle her. So that is definitely a person.”
She added, “I do want to go to IMPACT/TNA. That is just my heart. Honestly, I’m good to wrestle anywhere.”
Amari Miller and WWE parted ways back in February, with Miller saying “They didn’t have anything for me creatively, and my contract was ending anyway, so I felt it was best for both worlds.”
