The heartfelt revelation surfaced in the aftermath of WWE’s decision to release Dashwood, along with several other talents, including her husband Mike Rallis, known as Riddick Moss, on September 21st, 2023. Dashwood’s release coincided with WWE’s announcement of the upcoming Elimination Chamber event in Australia—an occasion she had eagerly anticipated and actively promoted. However, the joy of a potential homecoming swiftly morphed into disappointment as she received news of her release shortly after the event’s announcement.
Recalling the tumultuous events of that day during an insightful interview with Chris Van Vliet on Insight, Dashwood conveyed her disappointment and astonishment at the sudden turn of events. She particularly lamented the absence of opportunities to tour her home country, despite her persistent inquiries during her time with WWE. Dashwood underscored her fervent desire to participate in a significant event in Australia, which had been impeded by travel restrictions in preceding years.

Addressing her future in wrestling, Dashwood expressed dissatisfaction with her final WWE stint, feeling that she had more to offer the company. She articulated:
“I must admit, I felt a twinge of disappointment with my last run and was somewhat disheartened by how things unfolded. I genuinely believe I possess untapped potential, and my return was accompanied by lofty aspirations that unfortunately weren’t realized. Nonetheless, we viewed it as an opportunity for growth. Since then, we’ve embraced the chance to pursue our passions. Currently, our focus lies on an upcoming tour in Australia, comprising autograph signings and a match. Beyond that, we’re exploring new avenues.”
Dashwood’s candid remarks shed light on her resilience in the face of setbacks, emphasizing her determination to carve out a fulfilling career beyond the confines of WWE. As she embarks on the next chapter of her journey, Dashwood remains steadfast in her belief that her contributions to the world of professional wrestling are far from over.
