WWE fans were hit with some emotional news this past Friday as three WWE stars, including Indi Hartwell, were let go in the latest round of roster cuts. Hartwell, who had been with WWE for the past five years, took to Instagram to share her thoughts on leaving the company, reflecting on her journey and expressing gratitude.
In her Instagram post, Hartwell wrote, “I got to live out a childhood dream for the last 5 years, and I’m so grateful! I’m just a girl from Australia who never took ‘no’ for an answer and made her dreams a reality. It all started with a match in Brooklyn at the Barclays Center and fittingly, ends there too. Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.”
Her words resonated deeply, and several WWE stars quickly responded, showing their support. CM Punk, who’s no stranger to blazing his own trail, left a powerful message: “Love you, Indiana. It isn’t over.” The encouragement from Punk, along with messages from Bayley, Chelsea Green, and Natalya, reminded fans of the tight-knit community within WWE and the respect Hartwell has earned.
Beyond social media, Hartwell reportedly attended the wedding of two former WWE stars over the weekend, showing her connection with the wrestling world remains strong even as she steps away from WWE.
Indi Hartwell’s departure has sparked conversation online, with fans and fellow wrestlers acknowledging her talent and resilience. Do you think Hartwell will continue her wrestling journey outside WWE? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
