Tamina is still listed on WWE’s roster, but that might be the only thing keeping her connected to an in-ring return right now.
During a Fightful Select Q&A, Sean Ross Sapp was asked if anyone had seen Tamina lately, and his answer made it sound like fans probably shouldn’t expect her back on WWE television anytime soon.
“She’s not really at the shows, despite being listed on the roster. That seems to come up here and there. She’s not factored in creatively whatsoever, and hasn’t wrestled in years. Once the new regime took over, she wasn’t used anymore, but was occasionally backstage. She was actually seen speaking with CM Punk when he showed up at Raw while still under AEW contract. She’s almost 50 and hasn’t competed in over three years, so it’s quite likely we won’t see her again.”
That is a pretty quiet ending for someone who spent years as one of WWE’s most recognizable veteran women. Tamina has not wrestled since the February 27, 2023 episode of WWE Main Event, where she lost to Michin, and there has not been much movement around her since.
This also lines up with what was reported back in 2024, when fans were asking whether Tamina or Naomi could get involved with The Bloodline. At the time, it was noted that Tamina was no longer active, was not working shows, and was not on internal rosters anymore.
So while Tamina has not been formally presented as retired on WWE television, the signs are not exactly pointing toward a comeback. She is not being used creatively, she has not competed in more than three years, and even the backstage appearances seem to have dried up.
Tamina may still have her name on WWE’s website, but right now, that looks more like a technicality than a tease. Unless something changes, fans may have already seen her final match without WWE ever making a big announcement about it.
Do you think Tamina should get one final WWE appearance before officially calling it a career? Please share your thoughts and feedback in the comments.
