Cody Rhodes decided to make Kayla Braxton’s final day as WWE personality as memorable as possible by giving her an emotional send-off and the opportunity to speak to fans after SmackDown this week.

Kayla Braxton had become a familiar name to every WWE fan. Serving as an interviewer for WWE, Braxton is recognized as a Superstar on the company’s website due to her role as an on-air talent. Known for her interactions with Paul Heyman and her contributions to storytelling both backstage and occasionally in the ring, Braxton has earned immense popularity among the WWE Universe, but all things come to an end and that includes her time in WWE.

Braxton performed admirably during the June 28th edition of Friday Night SmackDown during her interview segment with the likes of LA Knight, which served as her farewell appearance in WWE.

”So WWE has a member of its family that is leaving and I think the best thing we can do right now give them an MSG send-off. Ladies and gentlemen you have been wonderful all night, you have been loud and proud, please let’s hear it for Kayla Braxton.”

The WWE Universe filled the arena with “Thank you Kayla” chants, saying goodbye to a name that had become synonymous with interviews in WWE. In a heartfelt moment, Braxton hugged Cody Rhodes, marking her final appearance with the company.

“Oh well, wasn’t expecting that. Oh my gosh, um, guys, 8 years ago you guys accepted me, an outsider to sports entertainment, into the WWE world. I came in not knowing much, but you guys quickly took me in and showed me the ropes—no pun intended. Every day since then has been some of the best days of my life because of all of you. Being able to call you my family means so much to me. Thank you guys so much, and I hope you’ll continue with me in this next chapter. I love you all so much.”

Kayla Braxton also allegedly turned down contract extension with WWE. Regardless, we’ll have to wait and see what the future holds for Miss Braxton, as she is more than capable of becoming a star anywhere she goes.
