Nixon Newell, formerly known as Tegan Nox in WWE, might not have been allowed to compete at ATTACK! Pro Wrestling’s December 14 event, but that didn’t stop her from showing some love for the show. The wrestling star took to social media to share how she was watching the event—beer in hand and all—despite being pulled from the lineup.
On her Instagram Stories, Newell posted a photo of herself at a bar, phone in hand, streaming the wrestling event she was supposed to compete in. “Wasn’t allowed to be there but still watching,” she captioned the post, flashing a wide grin while holding up a beer.
Newell’s removal from the event was confirmed weeks after her WWE release on November 1. ATTACK! Pro Wrestling announced her absence, citing complications but expressing gratitude to WWE for their cooperation in trying to make her appearance happen. While the exact reasons remain unclear, insiders speculate a mix of contractual obligations and logistical challenges led to her removal.
Despite not being in the ring, Newell’s Instagram post showed she’s still keeping a close eye on the wrestling scene. With her charismatic personality and undeniable talent, her eventual return to the squared circle is something fans—and promoters—are eagerly awaiting.
