Former WWE Superstar shares his take on Lacey Evans saying she never had a passion for professional wrestling

Following her departure from the company, Lacey Evans appeared in multiple interviews talking about her run in the wrestling promotion. In one such interview, The Sassy Southern Bell mentioned she hadn’t been passionate about professional wrestling.

However, this statement did not sit well with wrestling fans, as the former superstar received a lot of heat. While speaking to Sportskeeda Wrestling’s Riju Dasgupta, another former superstar, Top Dolla, shared his take on Evans and her controversial statement:

“To Macey’s [Lacey Evans] credit, you know, she gets a lot of flak online, but in person, she was genuinely one of the nicest people I’ve had to deal with during my time there with WWE. And it’s funny because, like, she said that WWE wasn’t passion, and I know what she means by that, but as hard as she worked, it had to be. You know what I’m saying? She was working her a** off. I’ve seen it. She would spend all the time with her family, so she had a passion for it, but sometimes that passion fades away. It’s just like love in a relationship. Sometimes, it just fades away,” he said.
The former Hit Row member himself ended his second stint with World Wrestling Entertainment in September 2023. Initially, AJ Francis was released from his contract in November 2021 before returning in August 2022.
