Lacey Evans signed with WWE in 2016. Evans made her main roster debut in 2019 after spending three years in NXT. However, she wasn’t able to succeed on the main roster.
Last August, Lacey Evans departed the company after her contract expired. Evans stated that she decided to leave WWE due to constant traveling.
In an interview with Chris Van Vliet, Macey Estrella, also known as Lacey Evans, said that WWE was never her passion. Estrella added that she always did her best while in WWE. She also said that traveling for 300 days is very difficult.
“I have had a lot [of offers], obviously, reach out. But I did WWE for seven years, and it was never my passion. That was never a secret. It was incredible to see my fellow Sports Entertainers that that is their passion, but I just knew. I went out there and did the best that I could and did my job. But I always looked forward to coming home. My family traveled with me everywhere I went for the most part. And that was a struggle, right? Because when I got signed with WWE, I was a mom and I was a wife. I’ve been with my husband since I was 15. It was an incredible opportunity, but it was a lot, for whenever you compare what your passion is and WWE is very, very difficult. You’re on the road, well, over 300 days a year. They want a lot from you. There was always something in the back of my head going, ‘What the f–k am I doing?”
The former WWE star said that she won’t miss WWE. Estrella further noted that wearing makeup and walking on red carpets were never her style.
“Do you want me to lie? No, there’s not. [If there was a part of her that missed WWE] Some people, they wake up and they put on six-inch stilettos and ten pounds of makeup and their extensions, and they go walk the red carpet, and they feel amazing. I’m not those people. And it was very difficult for me to put on that front.”
