Quetzalli Bulnes was let go by WWE after she was involved in an incident on October 30 at a house show in Mexico City.
Bulnes, the former host of WWE Ahora on YouTube, encouraged friend and wrestling YouTuber Falbak to jump the barricade and invited him into the ring. Fellow WWE announcer Byron Saxton was surprised by the unplanned spot and called security on Falbak, but Bulnes pushed back. Saxton pivoted to calling an intermission.
Earlier this month, she confirmed her departure from WWE with a video posted on her TikTok account.
While speaking to Michael Torres from Lucha Libre Online, Bulnes called the entire situation a misunderstanding and noted that she had four wonderful years in WWE.
“Regarding the reason for my exit, I want to say it like this: It was a case of bad understanding and bad communication between myself and other parts of Mexico. We know all the alignments in the United States and they are extremely professional & they have everything extremely structured, but I wanted to bring input to it.”
She recapped meeting Falbak and praised him for being a focused young man. She stated that she was surprised when she was in Arena Monterrey and how the crowd was enthusiastic about the hype.
“It was an idea that came to my head, a flower that blossomed, and from there came a series of ideas from a series of elements. The execution was because of a lack of communication from all angles. That some have already taken their part of the blame, like Falbak, is not my thing and it does not concern me. It was a good idea to me for the community to see him say “Hey, look, here’s a rose!”. They told me backstage to say Falbak’s name in the ring. A lot of it was out of my hands and it was a series of bad understandings and the alignments were not respected, and I understand that completely. These actions have these types of repercussions. Had I known what would have happened afterward, I would not have done it whatsoever due to the unfortunate situation, but it is not up to me to judge who is to blame and who isn’t because that is not my position.”
Bulnes stated that at the bottom of her heart, the situation hurts her as it started as a small idea only to develop into a huge thing and all she can do is learn from her mistakes.
