It was reported some time ago that Kairi Sane planned to leave WWE to return to Japan so she could be with her husband, and this week she finished up with the company.
Following Monday Night Raw the former NXT Women’s Champion took to Twitter to post the following:
“I was able to accomplish so much in the last three years, but it wasn’t because of my ability or my strength. It was because of all of the constant, warm support from the fans. I am so thankful I could meet you all.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart,
Kairi Sane☺️⚓️”
“My time in the NXT & WWE locker rooms was incredible. Everyone was kind, funny, & talented, so every day was full of happiness. Also, I was saved by the supportive staff behind the scenes. I will forever love & respect all these professionals I had the pleasure of working with.🍀”
WWE issued the following statement on her departure:
“Following Monday Night Raw, Kairi Sane took to Twitter to thank her fellow Superstars, WWE staff and the WWE Universe for their support as she prepares to leave WWE.
Sane joined WWE in 2017, winning the inaugural Mae Young Classic. Along with the hearts of the WWE Universe, she would go on to capture the NXT Women’s Championship and the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship alongside Asuka.
Sane’s fellow Superstars responded in kind on social media.
WWE sends its best wishes to Kairi Sane as she sets sail on her next voyage!”
