Katrina Cortez Having Visa Issues After WWE Release

For the past few months, WWE has been releasing several employees including WWE Superstars, beginning with the release of Superstars such as Chelsea Green and Mickie James in April.

Back in June, WWE held yet another round of cuts from the company and it included several big names. Among them include the likes of Aleister Black and Buddy Murphy. Unfortunately, WWE released several Superstars again recently. This included the likes of Nia Jax, Karrion Kross, Keith Lee, Mia Yim and more.

Chilean wrestler Katrina Cortez was also among the 18 WWE Superstars released recently. Unfortunately for the 21-year-old wrestler, it seems her release is just the beginning of her problems.

Katrina Cortez took to Twitter and revealed that her visa will be expiring next month. Due to this her plans for staying in the United States and competing in wrestling events might not happen anymore.

“At 18 I made the decision to travel to an unknown country, without knowing English I came here. Today, I receive an email telling me that my visa expires next month, and I will have to sell everything that, with much love and effort, I have achieved!!!”

Visa issues are commonplace in pro wrestling, as the likes of Cassie Lee and Jessica McKay of The IInspiration had such issues in the past. Even Bronson Reed couldn’t debut at Impact Wrestling’s Bound for Glory event due to similar problems. Cortez’s final match in WWE was on October 26, where she lost to Sarray on 205 Live. We will have to wait and see what will become of her pro wrestling career in the future.
