The former NXT star is on a break from pro wrestling following her release from WWE

Cora Jade had multiple matches on the indies following her release from the Stamford-based promotion. However, she recently took to her social media accounts and penned down an emotional post, revealing that she had decided to step away from professional wrestling for the foreseeable future.

Jade revealed that she was taking a break from wrestling to focus on her mental health. The former WWE NXT star also apologized to her fans and promoters for canceling any upcoming bookings and appearances.

"I originally had a 10 minute long video explaining where my head’s at, and maybe eventually l’ll post it but seems unnecessary for now. I’ll keep it short but I am going to be taking a break from wrestling for the foreseeable future. It’s no longer good for my mental health and I’ll never know if that love for it I once had will return if I don’t step away. I’m gonna take the rest of the year to take care of me and go from there. I apologize to the fans and promoters who were looking forward to/booked my upcoming appearances. I hope you can understand. To my supporters, thank you -Brie/Elayna "Let go or be dragged,"" Jade wrote.

It will be interesting to see when Jade returns to the squared circle and whether she re-signs with WWE anytime soon.
