Elayna Black has been keeping herself busy following her WWE release and she’s already working with the likes of Mandy Rose for some photo shoots. However, it appears Black was actually pulled over by police while she was making her way to Rose’s house recently.

While speaking on the Power Alphas podcast, Elayna Black talked about getting pulled over while on her way to Mandy Rose’s house for a shoot. She said she drove from Orlando, which is about a two and a half hour drive, but forgot to check if she had enough gas before leaving.

As it turned out, her tank was almost empty. She noticed the low fuel warning light and realized she was in trouble, especially since she was on a long stretch of turnpike with no gas stations nearby.

“I drove here from Orlando — Mandy lives like maybe two and a half hours away, yeah, about two and a half hours. I don’t know why I didn’t check to see if I had gas before I left, which is so dumb. And apparently, I had none. So I’m like… I’ve done this before too — I just see the flashing thing come up and I’m like, ‘What the hell?’ I’m thinking, ‘There’s gotta be a gas station somewhere.'”

After googling, she found out there wouldn’t be a gas station for another 30 miles. Her heart started racing as her car began shaking from running so low on fuel. She eventually made it to a gas station just in time, but had to make an illegal U-turn to get back on the right route.

Black says if she hadn’t done that, the trip would have taken an extra hour and a half. Unfortunately, she got pulled over after the U-turn. Thankfully, the officer let her go after she explained she was in a rush to get to a shoot.

“But I’m on this turnpike for like 30 miles, and then I Google it — and there are no gas stations for like 30 miles. I’m freaking out, my heart’s racing, I’m like, ‘Oh my god.’ Long story short, my car’s shaking, I finally make it to a gas station, but then I had to do one of those illegal U-turns to get back on the right route to you. And if I didn’t do it, it was going to add another hour and a half to my drive.

And sure as s***… I got pulled over. But yeah, he let me go. I had an excuse — ‘Excuse me, officer, I’m in a rush… I’ve got some stuff to shoot.'”

Elayna Black’s chaotic road trip just shows that even wrestlers aren’t immune to everyday slip-ups. Despite even getting pulled over, she still made it in one piece. In the end, she got to spend time with Mandy Rose and that’s all that really mattered to her.
