Nikki Cross reflections on WWE career

Overview

Professional wrestler Nikki Cross has provided reflections on her decade-long career and her recent departure from WWE. Following cuts related to WrestleMania 42, Cross described her release as unexpected and noted the emotional difficulty of moving on from various personas such as SAnitY, Nikki A.S.H., and Abby the Witch.

Cross detailed her creative contributions to the company, including the development of the Nikki A.S.H. superhero character. She has since returned to professional wrestling with Over the Top Wrestling and PROGRESS, and has acquired PROGRESS and DEFY Wrestling alongside her husband, Big Damo.

In subsequent reflections, Cross discussed her relationship with the late Bray Wyatt, noting his kindness toward performers and fans. She revealed that her ‘Abby the Witch’ character was a brainchild of Wyatt, and she sought to honor his vision by developing a backstory for the persona.
