Candice LeRae Returns To WWE

Another WWE Superstar has returned!

Candice LeRae’s last appearance on WWE television was during her time in NXT. There, she would be a member of The Way faction with her husband Johnny Gargano, but would ultimately have to stop wrestling due to getting pregnant with their first child.

While she was still out due to her pregnancy, her contract with WWE would expire. Along with her husband, she decided not to renew so she could take more time off from wrestling.

Also like Gargano, the “Poison Pixie” decided to eventually return and was immediately called up to the main roster by WWE. She has been assigned to the Raw brand with her husband.

Like the crowd, Nikki A.S.H. would be absolutely shocked when she realized that her opponent was Candice LeRae. In that match, LeRae took out A.S.H. in quick order without breaking a sweat.

Luckily for her, it was more than enough time for the commentary team to refresh the memories of fans on who LeRae was, and what stamp she left on the NXT brand before leaving WWE.

Candice LeRae’s last match would be on the black and gold brand on July 6, 2021, where she and Indi Hartwell, representing The Way, would take on Io Shirai and Zoey Stark for the WWE NXT Women’s Tag Team Championship. On NXT’s Great American Bash 2021 in Orlando, LeRae and Hartwell would lose the titles.

Up until now, LeRae hasn’t been seen on WWE TV since that loss.

Well, she’s back now!
