Trinity (former WWE wrestler Naomi) is excited to step into her new chapter with Impact Wrestling.
After making her Impact debut at a set of television tapings on Friday night, Trinity
was interviewed by NBC Chicago. Trinity called her Impact debut "very, very overwhelming" and said she wasn't able to hide her emotions during the appearance:
I was trying to hold back the tears. It just felt so good being back in wrestling and being with Impact in a place where I feel so welcome and just for the opportunity and just receiving all the love, it was very, very overwhelming. And I really felt it in my heart, like I really did. I couldn't even hide the emotion.
Friday night was Trinity's first time back in pro wrestling since she and Mercedes Mone (Sasha Banks) walked out of an episode of Raw in May 2022. In her interview with NBC Chicago, Trinity said she chose to join Impact Wrestling because of the strength of the company's women's division:
I've been wrestling 14 years now, and then one day everything, everything just changed. And I felt like my whole world was turned upside down and things were shuffled around. It took a little time to just process everything and really sort out what I wanted to do, where I wanted to be. I chose Impact because I really truly believe that it is one of the best women's divisions. The history of it -- I've been watching these women for years from afar and always admired the talent here. Once I made that decision, that's what I wanted to do, I went after it. And now I'm here.
Trinity told NBC Chicago that she believes everything happens for a reason and feels like her WWE departure was a blessing in disguise:
At the time, it was very scary. But I feel like everything happens for a reason. I feel like it was a blessing in disguise. I feel that it's allowed me to grow and become better in every way, in every aspect. Show me how strong I really am. And now I've got this new journey ahead of me, these new goals. And I'm excited and ready to step into this new chapter.
Trinity's first appearance for Impact
will air next Thursday (May 4). There will be a promo segment with Trinity on the episode.
A match with Trinity facing KiLynn King is being filmed at Saturday's Impact TV tapings.
