WWE Superstars have found success in the industry before and after they’ve ended their ties with the Stamford-based promotion. Recently, a female star shared a heartbreaking update, as she’s been forced to take time off from wrestling.
In 2023, Sareee parted ways with the Stamford-based promotion and returned to Japan. The 30-year-old ex-WWE star is thriving in the wrestling scene outside the United States, but tragedy struck, and she’s forced to miss time inside the squared circle.
Thanks for the submission!
It was recently announced, following Sareee’s recent match in Japan, that she’s forced to take time off from in-ring competition. Later, Sareee tweeted on X and provided an update regarding her ongoing neck issues. The 30-year-old star apologized to the fans that she won’t be able to compete for approximately a month.
Sareee made the decision based on the doctor’s advice and decided to take the time off, as she doesn’t want to risk her career. She asked the audience to understand her situation and promised to return so she could continue her in-ring journey.
“As announced, I will be taking approximately one month off for neck maintenance. Having to miss matches that were already scheduled, I am truly sorry for the inconvenience and worry this causes to all the fans and organizations involved. Honestly, it was a decision that took a lot of courage. But I was more afraid of not being able to step into the ring anymore. I made this decision so that I can continue fighting as a professional wrestler from here on out! Please give me just a little time!!” Sareee tweeted on X.
Sareee on her past WWE run
From 2020 to 2023, Sareee was a staple on the developmental brand under Shawn Michaels’ creative leadership. While she started strong on the brand due to her Joshi background, she eventually got a character, which didn’t click with the audience.
She portrayed a schoolgirl gimmick and was part of Chase U for a while, which led her nowhere in her career. In an interview with Tokyo Sports, the 30-year-old star expressed her frustration working in WWE with a poor gimmick. Sareee wasn’t a fan of the gimmick, but went with it as there were fewer opportunities at the time.
Moreover, the gimmick didn’t align with the intention she had for herself as a performer in the company. After months of absence, she parted ways with WWE in 2023 and hasn’t appeared for the company in any capacity.
