WWE celebrity personality was offered a permanent role as a wrestler but turned it down

According to an article from Thomas Hobbs of DazedDigital.com, WWE celebrity personality Sexyy Red was offered a permanent role as a wrestler but couldn’t find the time to train properly so she settled for a cameo appearance on NXT instead. Red said the following to the outlet while comparing wrestling to rapping…

“Rapping and wrestling are pretty much the same. It’s not quite acting, but it’s kind of acting too, right? Because when we go home and take off all our jewels and gold and remove the costumes we wear, we then have to go right back to reality with our families.”

Red hosted the 2024 NXT Battleground PLE. It’s unknown if Red will make another WWE appearance.
