Beth Phoenix Confirms That She’s Not Under Contract to WWE

It was reported last month that Beth Phoenix is no longer under contract to WWE and is currently a free agent. In an interview with Chris Van Vliet for Insight (via Fightful), Phoenix confirmed that she is no longer with the company.

She said: “I’m not. I am currently a free agent. I have a great relationship with WWE. I treasured my time there. I feel like there is more and other opportunities that have presented themselves and I feel the motivation now to explore and explore what else is out there and explore myself. My relationship with WWE hasn’t changed. I have so many friends there and I appreciate and enjoy the product as I always have. I love NXT. I have a special place in my heart for NXT and the system. Seeing people come up and go through that excitement of developing themselves for the big time. I love WWE. I always will.“
