Kayla Braxton won't be hosting The Bump any longer

WWE personality Kayla Braxton recently confirmed her exit from The Bump. Taking to Instagram, she commented on her departure and clarified that it was purely her own decision to leave.

Braxton signed with WWE back in 2016 and has previously worked as a ring announcer. She was the host of The Bump for the last four years and was crucial in the growth of the show.

Taking to her official Instagram handle, Braxton uploaded a story where she claimed that it wasn't possible for her to be in the Bump studio on a weekly basis. Hence, she opted to leave the show and create an opportunity for someone else.

"Haha clever caption but I wasn't kicked out. I made the decision to step down since I can't be in the studio each week. And I thought it was time to give someone else the opportunity to host that show since I was fortunate to do it the last 4 years. Appreciate all the support," wrote Braxton.

"Being in WWE now for nearly seven years, there has been a lot of growth, been a lot of change, all for the good. So I'm really excited, this will be my final day as the host of WWE's The Bump. I'm not leaving the show, I'm still going to be doing some cool content that will be rolling into the show every single week. But, in the meantime, I am very pleased to tell you that Megan Morant will be filling my spot."

Braxton added:

"240 episodes. I was really honored to get to come on here on the ground floor to what it is today. I know it is only going to grow even further, but all of your support every single week has meant the absolute world. And I'm not going away!"
