Ash By Elegance revealed that her time in the WWE was like a toxic relationship, although she is grateful for what she achieved there.
The former Dana Brooke recently appeared in a Q&A with Monopoly Events, where she spoke about her run in WWE from 2013 and 2023. Ash By Elegance likened it to a “toxic relationship”, but was thankful that it allowed her to form a bond with her fans that has followed her to TNA.
She also spoke about being a part of the Women’s Revolution, alongside big stars like Charlotte Flair, Sasha Banks and Bayley.
“Okay, so I will be completely open and honest—it was like a toxic relationship. It was definitely a roller coaster ride, but I wouldn’t be who I am today if it wasn’t for WWE. WWE gave me an amazing platform to interact with all my fans and to get to know one another,” Ash explained.
“I’m real—my fans know that I try to reach out and be super motivating and inspiring. If it wasn’t for WWE, I wouldn’t have the fans or the ability to interact the way I do.”
“With that being said, it really was an eye-opening experience. I was there during what I like to call the Women’s Evolution. Charlotte Flair, myself, Sasha Banks, Bayley—everyone in that era of NXT—it was truly amazing. I was Asuka’s first opponent when she came to the States. I was on the first-ever NXT TakeOver, the first Women’s Evolution pay-per-view, and the first Women’s Royal Rumble. It’s been an amazing journey,” Ash By Elegance added.
