Former NXT star Candice LeRae, wife of WWE star Johnny Gargano has been away from in-ring competition for quite some time now. The couple welcomed their first child, Quill, in February this year during their hiatus. The former NXT Women’s Tag Team Champion’s contract expired in May while her husband’s contract with WWE expired in December. Gargano has made his return to the company recently and fans have been wondering if LeRae will return to WWE.
Johnny Gargano provides update on Candice LeRae’s future
Speaking on Out of Character with Ryan Satin, Johnny Gargano stated that he doesn’t think she’s sure yet about returning when asked about her in-ring future.
‘I think she’s not sure yet. Obviously, this is a whole new adventure for her being a mom. And she’s extremely happy being a mom. I don’t know, it’s one of those things where we’ll see what happens on a weekly basis, but she is fully content staying at home with that baby,” said Gargano.Â
During the interview, Johnny Gargano further mentioned that Candice LeRae will always love wrestling, but she’s enjoying taking care of her family:
“Wrestling is always going to be her first love, but like we said, it’s a life-changing thing, and it changes you. When you have that fresh baby that you helped make and helped create in the world. But yeah, family is a big thing for her, and I think she’s right now just enjoying every ounce of it.’
Gargano recently had his first match on Monday Night RAW on the latest edition of the show. He squared off against Chad Gable, in a winning effort.
