Sonya Deville on leaving WWE: “It’s probably the best thing that could have happened to me”
Former WWE star Sonya Deville (Daria Berenato), now known as Daria Rae in TNA Wrestling, spoke with The Determined Society about her departure from WWE. Here is what she had to say…
“Looking back, it’s probably the best thing that could have happened to me, because I think that I was becoming— numb’s not a great word, but I was kind of becoming numb to the routine and stagnant, and I felt a little like broken down. I felt like I was losing that kind of luster that I always had, that fire that I always had.
And it wasn’t for a lack of the love of the sport, but, you know, just going through a lot of things and politics and all the kind of things that go into a high-level sport like that. I needed it. I needed a wake-up call.
I needed a fresh start. And so the passion and the fire I’ve gained back for my life over the past, what has it been, two years? It has been insane.”
