AEW Star AQA Leaving Pro Wrestling "For The Immediate Future"

Posted By: Ben Jordan Kerin on Jul 18, 2022

AEW star AQA (Zayda Ramier in NXT) revealed on Twitter that she is stepping away from pro wrestling "for the immediate future." In a statement she said:

“I want to take this time to say thank you to anyone who has ever cheered for me, supported me, bought merch, had me on your podcast or wrote an article about me. Those who sent loving messages, made fan art, gave me a hug during a meet & greet, or a high-five on my way to and from the ring. Promoters who booked me, opponents that stood across from me, and my trainers for teaching me everything I know for I wouldn't have made it this far without all of you.

At this time, I have decided to step away from professional wrestling for the immediate future. For the past few years, both mentally and physically, I have not been in a great place with wrestling, and silly me, I kept pushing through because I didn't want to be seen as weak, but it only sucked the fun out of every opportunity I had. I hope during this time I'll be able to reflect deeply and see what path is best for me.

Thank you AEW for granting me this time. Until I see you all again, much love.”

WNS wishes AQA all the best for her future.
