WWE Superstar Naomi expressed her emotions in a tearful message following her impactful comeback at the Royal Rumble Premium Live Event.
The 36-year-old, who joined World Wrestling Entertainment in 2009, initially showcased her skills in the company’s developmental territory, Florida Championship Wrestling.
Making her main roster debut in 2012, Naomi steadily rose to prominence, securing multiple titles and establishing herself as one of the top female wrestlers in the Stamford-based promotion.
Nevertheless, on the May 16, 2022, episode of Monday Night RAW, Naomi departed WWE alongside Sasha Banks, now recognized as Mercedes Mone, reportedly due to a creative dispute.
In 2023, the former SmackDown Women’s Champion transitioned to Total Nonstop Action/IMPACT Wrestling, securing the Knockouts World Champion title. Naomi’s highly anticipated comeback to WWE occurred during the Women’s Royal Rumble Match.
Following the event, the 36-year-old expressed her emotions on Twitter, feeling overwhelmed and extending gratitude to the fans for their warm welcome. “I don’t think I have any tears left lol. Thank you all for the warm embrace. It feels really good! #RoyalRumble,” Naomi tweeted.
