Ex-WWE Star Breaks Silence After Abrupt Release This Week

Jazmyn Nyx has confirmed her departure from WWE in a candid TikTok video. The former NXT star, real name Jade Gentile, said the decision was personal and primarily driven by a contract offer that was not financially sustainable for her future.

The 27-year-old detailed the factors behind her choice, reflecting on injuries and expressing gratitude for her time with the company:

“As you know, there’s been things circulating and I kind of want to just set the record straight that I am not resigning with WWE. This was a personal decision I had to make for myself and for my future. Personally, the contract that they were offering me for the next three years just wasn’t going to cut it for me financially. And that’s okay.

I kind of just wanted to give a backstory of everything. I was playing professional soccer in Iceland and then I got recruited obviously to WWE, which I left everything out there to come here for this opportunity, which I’m very, very grateful for. I was kind of held back a little in the beginning. I had four knee surgeries, so I had to recover and rebuild my knees in order to step in the ring. And as some of you know, I broke my nose—that’s why I was wearing the mask. I had other injuries, concussions that kind of kept me out of TV for a little bit.

I will say that there’s been a lot of opportunities that I’ve had to turn down and pass up, but now that I am out of the job, I can kind of explore these opportunities more and take them more seriously.

Love my Jasmine Nyx fans. Thank you guys so much for supporting me and having my back for the past three years. It’s been an amazing journey and I will miss you guys. And yeah, that is it for Jasmine Nyx. So, thank you guys for watching and I love you guys so, so much.”

Nyx’s exit was foreshadowed on television during the September 23 episode of NXT, where her character was attacked backstage by an unseen assailant. The angle led to the collapse of the Fatal Influence stable. Instead of helping, stablemates Jacy Jayne and Fallon Henley abandoned her. Jayne remarked, “It was time to drop her anyway,” while Henley added, “Only the strong survive.” The split followed growing tension within the group after a loss to Rhea Ripley, Lyra Valkyria, and Stephanie Vaquer at NXT Homecoming.

Her statement confirms a PWInsider Elite report that she would leave WWE at the end of her contract.

Nyx signed in November 2022 and debuted on television in early 2024 as part of Chase University. She later joined Jacy Jayne, with Fallon Henley completing the trio known as Fatal Influence.
