WWE has signed a lot of wrestlers throughout the history of the company, but not everyone makes it. Back in 2008, Catalina White signed a contract with the company and she went on to work in FCW under the name Saylor James.
As Saylor James, Catalina White went on to compete in only one more for FCW when she was defeated by The Girl From Mexico in a Queen Of FCW Title Tournament First Round match.
During a recent appearance on 2 Goons, Catalina White addressed some of the rumors regarding her WWE release, and she confirmed that the company let her go because she got a tattoo that wasn’t approved by the company.
“I got a call from someone, and they’re like, ‘Hey, you got a tattoo. You know you weren’t supposed to do that.’ And I, at that point, was kind of like, ‘I don’t care.’ You know what I mean?
And they kind of gave me a thing where, ‘You could come back, but we’re going to let you go, and if maybe you want to come back and work again, you can.’ And I was just ‘Okay.’ And then I had the chance to go do NXT, but I was like, ‘Nah.’”
While she was working for FCW, Catalina White met former WWE World Heavyweight Champion Jake Hager (Jack Swagger) and they ended up getting married in 2010. However, White and Hager quietly divorced in 2024.
Jake Hager suffered an industry while competing at the Power Slap 23 event on September 18th, and you can get more details on his status here.
