Following months of speculation, Naomi has finally confirmed her departure from WWE. Speculation first arose when she and Sasha Banks walked out on the company in May 2022 and were later suspended. Banks has since left WWE and is now the IWGP Women’s World Champion.
Despite not appearing on WWE programming for almost a year, Naomi remained listed on the WWE roster until she confirmed the news of her departure on her Instagram account. She announced an upcoming appearance at Wrestlecon during WrestleMania weekend, and in response to fans’ inquiries about her status with WWE, she revealed that she was no longer with the company.
It remains to be seen whether Naomi’s departure from WWE was due to her contract expiration or other factors. Nevertheless, her exit is a considerable loss for the company as she had been a cherished and skillful performer since joining WWE in 2010. She had won the SmackDown Women’s Championship twice and had played a crucial role in the Total Divas series.
It is currently unknown what Naomi’s future plans are, but her departure from WWE opens up numerous possibilities for the wrestler to showcase her skills and personality in new ways. While WWE has yet to comment on her departure, fans are undoubtedly eager to see where she goes next and what her next steps will be in the wrestling world. We will continue to provide updates on Naomi’s status as they become available.
