Since her release, Mitchell has shifted her focus to her jewelry brand, but many fans are still wondering if she plans to continue working in the world of wrestling once she is able to.

While speaking to SEScoops for a new interview, Mitchell said that she's thankful for the time she spent in WWE, as it allowed her to grow as a human and person.

“Yeah, I’m thankful for my time in WWE. It allowed me to grow and flourish with who I am as a human and as a person. Like you said, I met my husband there, so I’m endlessly thankful for that and the experiences and the places I’ve gotten to travel. Being able to step out of your comfort zone a little bit, I think there’s something really interesting about being able to step out and sometimes just be uncomfortable and it direct you where you need to go. WWE did that, it allowed me to see what I can do when the red light goes on or to take me to another place that I didn’t even realize that I could tap into that skill, and I did. So I’m forever thankful for my time in WWE. I can’t talk about that enough. I’m excited for 2024 and what’s to come there, I think it’s a blessing and I’m really excited to have a new direction and to be able to take a breath at the end of 2023 and go, okay, what are we doing now, let’s set the bar even higher and reach for the stars.”

In a seperate recent interview, Mitchell said that she wanted to have a WrestleMania moment while she was in WWE. Fans can learn more here.
