During a conversation on The Ringer Wrestling Show, Naomi spoke about her return to WWE after she walked out of the company in 2022 alongside Mercedes Mone aka Sasha Banks due to a creative difference with Vince McMahon.
Naomi later went to TNA Wrestling, finding great success. She said,
“I knew I would, I didn’t know when, I didn’t know how, I didn’t know where but I didn’t like ending my journey here in the way that it happened. So I know for me and myself, it could be made right and the time is right and the opportunity presented itself, I would come back to finish my career in the light that I should and the company that I love so much that made me the star I am. So it was never about, ‘Oh that’s it, I’m not coming back’. It was a lot going on and I just had to take a break, step away, figure out things, get some things done and stand on business.”
Jade Cargill, Bianca Belair & Naomi vs. Damage CTRL’s Asuka, Kairi Sane & Dakota Kai will take place at WrestleMania 40 (Night One).
After a brief hiatus from the WWE, Naomi has made her return to the company. In a recent interview on The Ringer Wrestling Show, she discussed her departure from WWE in 2022 and her subsequent return.
Naomi left WWE alongside Mercedes Mone, also known as Sasha Banks, due to a creative difference with Vince McMahon, the chairman and CEO of WWE. However, Naomi’s time away from the company was not spent idly. She found great success in TNA Wrestling, showcasing her talent and proving her worth in the industry.
During the interview, Naomi expressed her desire to return to WWE and finish her career in the company that helped shape her into the star she is today. She stated, “I knew I would [return]. I didn’t know when, I didn’t know how, I didn’t know where, but I didn’t like ending my journey here in the way that it happened. So I know for me and myself, it could be made right, and the time is right, and the opportunity presented itself, I would come back to finish my career in the light that I should and the company that I love so much that made me the star I am.”
Naomi’s departure from WWE was not a permanent decision. It was a result of various factors and circumstances that led her to take a break and step away from the company. She needed time to figure things out, handle personal matters, and focus on her business ventures. However, her love for WWE remained intact, and she always had the intention of returning when the timing was right.

This highly anticipated match will undoubtedly showcase Naomi’s incredible athleticism and skills in the ring.
Naomi’s return to WWE not only signifies her personal journey but also highlights the company’s willingness to welcome back talented individuals who have made significant contributions to the wrestling industry. It is a testament to the mutual respect and appreciation between Naomi and WWE.
As Naomi continues her career in WWE, fans can expect to see her shine in the spotlight once again. Her determination, passion, and undeniable talent make her a force to be reckoned with in the world of professional wrestling.
