A former WWE Superstar has stepped away from the wrestling business following her departure in August 2023. She is now open to returning to the squared circle if she receives a convincing offer.
The person in question is none other than Lacey Evans. The Sassy Southern Belle spent nearly seven years in the Stamford-based company as she competed on NXT, Monday Night RAW, and SmackDown. However, she left the promotion about ten months ago and has since left the wrestling industry to pursue other projects and focus on her family.
In a recent interview with Carlo Perruzza, the former Marine gave an interesting answer to a question about whether she was open to making a comeback to wrestling through WWE, AEW, or even TNA:

"Yeah, I mean, if... I loved wrestling, don't get me wrong. It wasn't my passion but I love the hard-hitting action. If there's a company out there that will bring me in to kick a** and get my a** kicked, that's great," she said. [25:14 - 25:31]
Lacey Evans was scheduled to win a major title in WWE
In early 2021, Lacey Evans was booked to challenge Asuka for the RAW Women's Championship at Elimination Chamber. However, the match got canceled after the Sassy Southern Belle became pregnant.
In her interview with Carlo Perruzza, the 34-year-old disclosed that Vince McMahon was planning to give her a title run despite previously giving her his blessing to have a baby:
"For some reason, Vince McMahon, if you're out there listening, decided that shortly after that conversation, I mean it might have been three months, that he was going to, I was going to hold the title. 'Well, sir, surprise motherf**ker! I got a baby.' So, you know, it changed," she said.
Evans last wrestled in July 2023 when she lost to Zelina Vega in a dark match on SmackDown. It would be interesting to see if we will ever see the former Marine again in WWE.
