There’s been a lot of talk about WWE departures over the last few months as the company released over two dozen wrestlers following WrestleMania 42. Now it seems that another departure has been confirmed.
Aria Bennett, real name Ajiea Lee Hargrave, recently revealed that she has also parted ways with WWE as she updated her Instagram profile which now reads “former WWE.” She has also removed any references to WWE from her handle on Instagram.
The NCAA ALL-American Gymnast originally signed with WWE in 2024. She wrestled several matches for WWE Evolve and also competed at a few NXT live events. She last stepped into the ring at the 4/26/25 NXT live event in Orlando, Florida when she teamed with Chantel Monroe to face the team of Carlee Bright & Kendal Grey. She last appeared on WWE Evolve on the 4/4/25 episode when she faced off against Zara Zakher.
Aria Bennett revealed in July of 2025 that she had torn her ACL and underwent sugery due to the injury. At this point in time it’s not clear if she has plans to continue wrestling moving forward.
Stay tuned for more updates on WWE departures as they become available.
