Macey Estrella, better known by Lacey Evans in WWE, recently spoke about her leaving WWE. In August of this year, Estella requested her release from the company at the end of her contract. This was granted.
While speaking to Chris VanVliet, she answered why she hasn’t taken any bookings since leaving WWE –
“No, I have not [taken any bookings]. I’ve had a lot obviously reach out. But I did WWE for seven years and it was never my passion, that was never a secret. It was incredible to see my fellow sports entertainers [succeed], that is their passion. But I just knew that I went out there and did the best that I could, I did my job. But I always looked forward to coming home. My family obviously travelled with me, everywhere that I went for the most part, and that was a struggle, right?
Because when I got signed with WWE, I was a mom and I was a wife. I’ve been with my husband since I was 15. It was an incredible opportunity. But it was a lot for whenever you compare what your passion is, and you’re wise and WWE is very, very difficult. If you’re on the road well over 300 days a year, they want a lot from you. And there was always something in the back of my head that was like what the fuck am I doing?”
She was also asked if there is any desire to go back to WWE.
“Do you want me to lie? No, there’s not [a desire to go back],” admitted Evans. “You know, some people, they wake up and they put on six-inch stilettos and 10 pounds of makeup and their extensions and they go walk the red carpet and they feel amazing. I’m not those people. And it was very difficult for me, right? To kind of put on that front. And because WWE does a lot of good stuff for a lot of people, but I just felt like more could be done for my why, right?”
