The IInspiration's Cassie Lee and Jessie McKay are stepping away from the ring.

In a statement issued on Wednesday, Lee and McKay announced that they are "indefinitely stepping away from in-ring action." Lee and McKay had been part of the Impact Wrestling roster since signing with the promotion last October.

"We first want to thank Scott D'Amore and the entire IMPACT family," Lee and McKay said. "We have had such an amazing experience, working with the incredible IMPACT staff and roster. We will cherish these IMPACT memories forever. We are excited to start a new chapter in our lives and explore other opportunities that may come our way."

"The Inspiration have been a great part of IMPACT's Knockouts roster and wonderful to work with," Impact Wrestling executive vice president D'Amore said. "Cassie and Jessie are incredibly talented performers. Everyone at IMPACT wishes them every success in the future."

The IInspiration were formerly known as The IIconics in WWE, using the names Peyton Royce and Billie Kay respectively. They were released by WWE during the company's April 2021 roster cuts.

The IInspiration made their Impact Wrestling debut at Bound for Glory last October. In their debut match, Lee & McKay won the Knockouts Tag Team titles. They dropped the titles to The Influence (Tenille Dashwood & Madison Rayne) at Sacrifice this March.

The Influence retained their titles against The IInspiration on the pre-show for Impact Wrestling's Bound for Glory pay-per-view last Saturday.

Huh

 

[Alexa]

Kind of vague

 

[Leon TrotSky]

Sad but they're probably making 10x their Impact money doing modelling things

This is why we need more women's tag teams in case this happens

 

[Brandon Blaze]

Inb4 it’s a work! Jk jk

Very random, but well that also kind of sucks. Hope it’s not to long.

That’s interesting. At first I thought Visa issues but they were pretty open about that last time.

Whatever it is, I wish them best in their future endeavors.

Sounds like family starting talk

I just thought they were making more money modeling than wrestling myself so they're gonna focus on building up that, probably get some sponsors to plug on Instagram that pay more than Impact

Yeah thats my take. Not enough of a draw on the indies n can make more "just being hot"

Could also plug said sponsor on Impact

 

[Chris]

I think AXS and Impact would have to approve that and they would probably want a cut lol and the sponsor might argue 75k-100k weekly viewers isn't worth paying more

 

[Alexa]

I know, and I figure that but still 75k is 75k more people who sees your product. Or do the wise move and move to Twitch and stream hot tubs and Bikinis

 

[Rosie]

Clearly with their modelling stuff, they can profit off of horny wrestling fans and non-wrestling fans and take less physical punishment. That and there is a chance they could be wishing to focus on starting their own families as well.

 

[Alexa]

they can profit off of horny wrestling fans

Just buried about 85% of fans

Just buried about 85% of fans

That’s a little low
