Trinity On Leaving WWE: It Was A Bad Situation, But I’m Thankful For My Time There

Trinity reflects on her departure from WWE.

Formerly known as Naomi, Trinity has officially kicked off a new chapter of her career. After she and Sasha Banks (Mercedes Moné) walked out of WWE in May 2022 and got suspended indefinitely, she left the company and signed with IMPACT Wrestling; she debuted for the promotion at the Spring Slugest taping on April 28.

Speaking with Alfred Konuwa of Forbes, Trinity was asked to share her thoughts on the biggest misconceptions of her and Moné in terms of the negativity they faced online. The former SmackDown Women’s Champion made it clear that she doesn’t want to come off as angry or bitter, as she doesn’t feel that way. She stated that it was a bad situation, but she loves WWE.

“I don’t ever wanna come off as angry, as bitter [or] mad,” Trinity said. “I don’t feel any of that, you know? I mean, it was just a bad situation, crazy, crazy, crazy situation with a lot of layers to it. But I love WWE. I’m thankful for all the amazing years that I’ve been there, what they’ve given me, what they’ve given to my family, what career I’ve had. I wouldn’t be able to do what I’m doing now without that foundation and what I’ve been able to do with them and being there.”

Trinity continued by noting that everything came to a head, and they had to deal with the situation publicly. She stated that she wished it could have been taken care of privately, but she believes a lot of good will come out of it.

“Sometimes there’s hiccups with the business and there’s issues and problems and everything just came to a head, and sadly we had to deal with it publicly,” Trinity said. “I wish it was something that could have just been handled and taken care of privately. But I definitely think a lot will good will come from the situation and has been coming out of it. I do feel good with where I am right now.”

The former WWE star also opened up about how she went through a dark time after she walked out of WWE, and she felt both lost and hurt.

“I’m really picky about using words like depression because I’ve seen people go through that I don’t think it was that,” Trinity said. “But I just knew I was hurt, very down, very sad very, very lost. Like, literally I was like ‘what just happened?’ You know what I mean? Everything was fine, I was getting through this, but boom, the day happened and all that craziness. Just the media and all of that. And then also the schedule change, going from being on the road so much to all of a sudden just being shut down and not being able to do anything. Not wanting to say anything about it.

“It was crazy. Very, very surreal ordeal. But yeah, definitely, mentally, emotionally, it was a challenge and it took me through just about every emotion that there is to go through. But that’s life. That’s what it had come to and I’m glad I’m here now and I got through it because it definitely made me a lot stronger. It made me understand a lot more about myself, what I want, what I needed and all the things that led up to that.”
