Kayla Braxton (Kayla Becker), who had been with WWE since 2016, announced her departure from the company this past June.
During a recent appearance on the “Nikki & Brie Show,” Braxton explained her decision to leave WWE, noting that she believed she had exhausted all available opportunities within the company.
Braxton also revealed that she was under contract at the time of her decision to quit WWE.
She said, “I was under contract. Announcers, we operate very differently. I just realized, within myself, after eight years; I’ve done everything I can do here. You know how the schedule is at WWE. It’s 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 wasn’t 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.”
Braxton’s final WWE appearance was on the June 28th episode of SmackDown at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
