Former WWE Superstar Naomi recently opened up on the reason behind joining IMPACT Wrestling.
Last May, Naomi, and Sasha Banks shocked the world when they allegedly walked out of WWE. Since their walkout, both women have gone in different directions in terms of their careers. Earlier this year, Sasha Banks debuted for NJPW and even won the IWGP Women's Championship.
Meanwhile, Naomi, now going by the moniker Trinity, recently debuted for IMPACT Wrestling and will likely challenge for the Knockouts Title.
During a recent interview with Denise Salcedo, Naomi opened up on her reason behind joining IMPACT Wrestling. She stated that the women's division in IMPACT Wrestling is one of the best, and that acted as one of the main reasons behind her joining the promotion.

“The women’s division. I think they have one of the best women’s divisions right now, and they really don’t get the highlight of the attention or the respect as much. They’ve always told great stories with their women’s division, and just having the conversation that I had with Gail [Kim], that really sealed the deal for me, [....] and hearing good things said about the company helped me make that choice, as well the schedule [and] just the opportunities there."
She added that IMPACT is the place where she felt she could be most heard and be most useful.
"I feel that right now, with all that’s going on in the world of wrestling and women’s wrestling, I feel that it’s the place where I could be most useful, and seen and heard, and that’s what made me choose IMPACT," Trinity said. [H/T Fightful]
