UK women’s wrestler Candy Floss, who made several appearances for the NXT UK brand and last wrestled in 2019 revealed on her official Twitter account that she had signed a full-time contract with the company in January 2020, however due to the pandemic and mental health reasons, she was never able to make her full-time televised debut and that her contract expired in December 2021.
Candy Floss’ post reads, “In May 2019, I lost my Mum to cancer, then in January 2020, I signed with NXT UK. Unfortunately, my dream career with WWE got put on hold when, during the pandemic, I was diagnosed with severe PTSD and anxiety because of the trauma I experienced witnessing my favorite person, my Mum, fight for her life. I decided I needed to put my mental health first and WWE couldn’t have been more supportive. In December 2021, my contract with WWE expired. It is very sad for me, as I wish my journey with WWE didn’t have to end like this as I’ve worked so hard to get signed. I just want to say thank you to WWE for dealing with me so well, as I know it’s not an easy situation, I’m very grateful for it all. From fighting in the ring nearly every day, I found myself being in the biggest fight with my mental health. On a positive note, I am doing so much better! My dream isn’t over, life just decided to be very unfair (not so sweet) towards me. Hopefully, I will be back in the ring again sometime soon and hurt my 90-year-old back again. Thank you to everybody for supporting me!”
