Trinity Fatu says she left WWE because she wasn’t happy and felt stagnant.
The former SmackDown Women’s Champion walked out of the company alongside Mercedes Mone in May 2022. The duo held the Women’s Tag Titles at the time. WWE stripped the tag team of the championship and buried them on TV.
While Mone made her way to NJPW earlier this year, Fatu had stayed away from wrestling ever since. She finally returned to the business last month and made her debut for Impact Wrestling.
Trinity Fatu felt lost
The former WWE star opened up about her departure during an appearance on Busted Open Radio (H/t Wrestlingnews.co). She explained that she left the company because of the way she was talked to:
“I felt very stagnant and I wasn’t happy. Ultimately, I left that day because of the way I was talked to and handled. Everything kind of just broke me that day. It had nothing to do with anything else, anybody else. That was just it. I had to. To go through all the backlash and the negativity and the lies and the rumors and then to also kind of just feel lost, it broke me.”
Trinity Fatu claimed that it was the lowest point of her life. Going through it, however, helped her grow. According to the former champion, she is thankful for this opportunity:
“It was probably the lowest I’ve ever felt in my life. But going through that made me reset and face it head on and figure out how to learn from this experience and grow from it [and] just find myself again in all of it. I’m extremely happy now and really thankful for this opportunity to show that you haven’t seen me at my best yet.”
