Nixon Newell was released from WWE in late 2024, marking the second exit of the former Tegan Nox. Speaking to
Busted Open Radio, Newell shared how losing her job was just the start of a very bad period in her life, both personally and professionally.
“Wrestling had to take a backseat for me. Like, literally within days of being released, I was in a massive car wreck. So I’d been dealing with that.”
As she recovered and contemplated her life post-WWE, wrestling was no longer the focus for Newell, something that was “tough to admit.” Now though, Newell is back and ready to make an impact.
“I’m taking the initiative—doing promos, taking pictures, putting myself back out there—doing everything I can to get the name Nixon Newell back in people’s minds.“
