Leva Bates joined All Elite Wrestling in April 2019 and portrayed a librarian gimmick in the promotion. She made her in-ring debut at Fyter Fest in June 2019, where she lost to The Bunny.

The 39-year-old last competed on the February 15th AEW Dark Elevation, where she teamed up with Madison Rayne & Willow Nightingale to face Emi Sakura, Marina Shafir & Nyla Rose in a Six-Woman Tag Team match.

On Monday, Leva Bates announced that her contract with All Elite Wrestling expired. She thanked the staff and fellow wrestlers.

“As of today, my contract with AEW has expired. The last four years have been quite a ride; I’ve learned so much and grown exponentially. I’ve seen wrestling history take place as someone who was on the team since before the first show. I appreciate & love all the crew, staff and talent; I will cherish all our memories together. I’ve given my time, my focus, and my effort to the company, but now I’ve got to focus on myself, my future and my career. I hope you all, my friends, fans and loved ones, stay with me through this next chapter of my journey. I hope to make you all proud no matter where I go.”
