Sonya Deville Was Released By WWE Amid Contract Negotiations

Earlier this month, WWE released several talents: Elektra Lopez, Giovanni Vinci, Luke Gallows, Karl Anderson, Isla Dawn, Cedric Alexander, AOP (Rezar and Akam), Paul Ellering, and Blair Davenport.

Sonya Deville was notified that WWE will not renew her contract, which ends later this month.

Everyone, except for Deville, is subject to 90-day non-compete clauses. This prevents them from working for any company until the three-month period has elapsed. After that, they will become free agents and can sign with any promotion.

Deville shared her thoughts on her departure from WWE in her latest YouTube video.

She said, “I got the call. My contract was not being renewed with the WWE. I got the phone call. We were in the middle of negotiations, so I thought the phone call was going to be middle ground that we met on. An agreement on a contract. It was, ‘We are not renewing your contract.’ I was shocked. At the end of the day, it’s a business. I think business-minded. For whatever the reason is, I don’t know the reason, and I could sit here and try to come up with one or guess. ‘It was definitely that. I said or did that.’ I put 150% effort in the entire ten years, but most importantly the last three. I went down to the Performance Center on my own time. Moved there for two months to train to get the rust off.” 

Deville last wrestled on the February 3rd episode of WWE Main Event, losing to Natalya in a singles match.
