Tay Melo recently shared a message on social media amid recent reports related to her AEW status.
As noted previously, it was reported earlier this week that Melo had sought her release from AEW last year, but the company denied it. At the AEW Redemption Media Call, Tony Khan addressed the reports, clarifying that Tayo did request her release, but that happened following the June 6 episode of AEW Collision, not last year. Khan confirmed he’ll grant Tay her release.
On Instagram, Tay Melo shared the life lessons she learned while planting her favorite pink tree, seemingly drawing parallels to her current situation in AEW.
Here’s what she said:
“I always dreamed of having a pink tree, so I ordered one. It arrived at my house in a pot. Then we placed the pot near the irrigation system and waited for the guy to come plant it. Days went by. He didn’t show up, and my tree started dying. One morning, I looked at it, and it looked completely dead. I was so frustrated. I felt like I had wasted my money, time, and my dreams. But then my husband said, ‘Why don’t we try to save it? Don’t throw it away. Let’s water it a little more.’
“So every day, on top of the automatic irrigation, we used the hose, giving it extra water. And then, yes, it did start to show signs of life, but it was not thriving. Then I realized something: It didn’t just need more water; it needed to be planted where it was meant to grow. So we planted it in the ground, and a few days later, this is my tree: beautiful, blooming, like it’s meant to be.
“And you see, the tree only looked like it was dying because it was living in a place it was never meant to stay. But don’t get me wrong. The pot wasn’t bad. In fact, the pot served a really important purpose. It protected the tree during the journey from the nursery to my home. But the pot was never meant to be its permanent home. The ground was. Be grateful to the pot, but pay attention to the ground. Have a good one.”

Tay last wrestled on AEW TV on the June 6 episode of Collision, where she and Anna Jay unsuccessfully challenged The Divine Dominion for the Women’s World Tag Team Championship.
