Carmella is moving into a different chapter in her career as her WWE contract has expired. Carmella had been on a hiatus as she and Corey Graves welcomed their first child into the world together in 2023. She was then sidelined due to a non-wrestling-related injury called Drop Foot.
On her Instagram stories, Carmella noted, “Some news broke last week and I just wanted to let you know that I’ve seen all of your texts and tweets and messages and DMs, and like, oh my god, you guys are just the best, and I’m so grateful for you and everything that you’ve been saying about Carmella and my career, and I’m so blessed. So thank you.
Carmella said, “I know there’s a lot of questions and uncertainty around everything. I will be going on a podcast later this week, answering some of those questions and telling my side because I have a lot to say about the situation.”
While with WWE, she won the first-ever Women’s Money in the Bank ladder match before cashing in her Money in the Bank contract to defeat Charlotte Flair for the SmackDown Women’s Championship. She later won the Women’s Tag Team Titles with Queen Zelina and was paired with R-Truth as a comedy act.
