Stevie Turner has provided a major update about her return to in-ring competition.

Turner was released by the Stamford-based company ahead of WWE Crown Jewel, which also included several other names across the ID, NXT, and EVOLVE brands.

The 28-year-old served as the General Manager of EVOLVE and was last seen on NXT during the September 23 episode.

Turner debuted as a wrestler in NXT UK in 2021 before moving to NXT in the United States.

Her last televised match took place on June 4, 2024, when she lost to Jordynne Grace. Since then, she has competed in various House Shows apart from serving full-time as the EVOLVE General Manager.

Stevie Turner posted a message on X, confirming that she was ready to step back into the squared circle after departing WWE.

Her tweet received many messages of support, including one from former World Wrestling Entertainment star Shotzi.

Bloodline Member Released By WWE

Tama Tonga of the Bloodline family returned to WWE on October 10 after recovering from an injury he had sustained in April.

While his return must have brought joy to the legendary family, another member’s release is sure to have caused them sadness.

Among the latest releases was Lance Anoa’i, who was signed in 2024 on NXT. However, did not wrestle in a single match, ultimately deciding to leave the promotion on October 10.

The 33-year-old revealed his status on X.

I would officially announce my departure from WWE! I didn’t have the best of luck since I arrived! I will not let this stop me from achieving to be great! I’ve worked hard on the indies for 15 years! Now let’s get back to work!

Lance is the son of Samuel Anoa’i, who is a retired professional wrestler and currently signed to the Stamford promotion on a Legends contract.
