Candy Floss' WWE NXT UK Contract Expired

Candy Floss is gone from WWE

In a statement today, Candy Floss revealed her WWE NXT UK contract expired back in December of 2021, making her a free agent.

The 22-year-old wrote:

"In May 2019 I lost my mum to cancer then in January 2020 I signed with NXT UK.

"Unfortunately, my dream career with WWE got put on hold when, during the pandemic, I was diagnosed with severe PTSD and anxiety because of the trauma I experienced witnessing my favorite person, my mum, fight for her life. I decided I needed to put my mental health first and WWE couldn't have been more supportive. In December 2021 my contract with WWE expired. It is very sad for me as I wish my journey with WWE didn't have to end like this as I've worked so hard to get signed. I just want to say thank you to WWE for dealing with me so well as I know it's not an easy situation, I'm very grateful for it all.

"From fighting in the ring nearly every day, I found myself being in the biggest fight with my mental health. On a positive note, I am doing so much better! My dream isn't over, life just decided to be very unfair (not so sweet) towards me. Hopefully I will be back in the ring again sometime soon and hurt my 90-year-old back again. 

"Thank you to everybody for supporting me!"

Candy Floss noted back in July of 2021 that she was on leave from WWE after being diagnosed with severe anxiety, depression, low moods and PTSD.

She signed with NXT UK in January of 2020 after sporadically wrestling on the brand in 2018 and 2019. She hasn't wrestled for any promotion since August 2019.
