Lana has been featured on WWE programming for years, but last month the company shocked the world when it was announced that Lana had been released from her contract.
During an appearance on Talk Is Jericho the former WWE star said that she was renting a house in St. Petersburg and two weeks into renting it she was released. Lana noted that when she received the call about her release from John Laurinaitis that she thought he was calling about something completely different. Lana also noted that she received a text from the Chairman of the Board himself, Vince McMahon.
“I did. I got a text. I definitely got emotional about it because it was a slight goodbye for me. He thanked me for my incredible work ethic, and for my unrelentingly desire to be the best that I could be and all the contributions I gave to WWE. So that really meant a lot to me, and I thanked him for everything that he’s taught me because I learned so much.
“I’ve learned so much life lessons and performing. I’m incredibly thankful. The hardest part for me, maybe they’ll change this in the future, especially after Mickie and the garbage bag, is the goodbye part. Now it’s changed a little bit. People at least talk to each other. It used to be cut off. I would have liked to maybe give Vince McMahon one last hug goodbye. I want to say goodbye to the writers.”
