Indi Hartwell comments on the “weird” circumstance surrounding her release from WWE

While speaking to Chris Van Vliet, former WWE star Indi Hartwell commented on her release from WWE in November of 2024. Indi brought up how she was let go just hours before her final match with the company aired on television…

“Fun fact, I missed the call when they called me to release me, so I made the call to get fired. They’re like, ‘Oh, we’re calling with some unfortunate news.’ And I was so confused, because I wanted to say, ‘What do you mean? Like, I’m on the show tonight, like my match was taped last week, like I’m on the show tonight.’ But yeah, it was, it was weird. Some people didn’t know that that Smackdown was taped the week before, so they thought that I got released and then had to, like, go out that night and wrestle. Could you imagine?”

“I didn’t honestly feel like it was coming, especially when it happened. My whole time at WWE, I was always scared of getting released. And add another factor to is that I’m an international so people don’t really understand, like, visas, green cards… that was something that was like always in the back of my mind, like being scared of being fired.” (quotes courtesy of WrestlingNews.co)
