Hollyhood Haley J Reveals The Real Reason She Missed WWE Tryout

HollyHood Haley J is one of the rising stars in the independent wrestling circuit. She is the daughter of six-time Ohio Valley Wrestling Women’s Champion Amazing Maria. Fans have recently been able to see her on Netflix‘s new docuseries Wrestlers.

Haley J has been wrestling for several years. She began wrestling in IWA-MS at the BattleBroads special event. The young professional wrestler has also competed in a few matches in Tony Khan’s promotion, All Elite Wrestling. HollyHood competed in a couple of matches on AEW Dark and then was also a part of one of the House Rules live events. Sadly, she lost all her matches in the Jacksonville-based promotion.

Haley J has been absent from in-ring competition since September. During a recent episode of the Cafe De Rene podcast, she was a special guest. In the episode, J revealed that her doctor refuses to clear her to compete due to her epilepsy, and it’s why she also missed a recent WWE tryout opportunity.

“I have epilepsy and my doctor is not trying to clear me to wrestle. My doctor. Of course, they were like, ‘we need a clearance letter.’ My doctor was like, ‘No.’ I’m in the process of finding another doctor to get a second opinion. I haven’t had a seizure in over six years. Been off medication for four, been wrestling for almost four years, haven’t had any issues. I don’t know why they won’t work with me. Waiting on a second opinion. Then, I should be right back up at the top where I belong,” HollyHood Haley J said. [H/T Fightful]

A lot of people ordering merch. Almost sold out of all of my merch. Got me a little tryout. It didn’t fall through. That will come back around. It got me new friends,” HollyHood Haley J said.
