Sara Lee, a former WWE superstar, passed away a few hours ago. Her mother took to Facebook to inform everyone about her daughter's passing. Lee was just 30 years old.
Lee was a contestant on the 2015 season of WWE Tough Enough. Not only did she take part, but she ended up winning the show. The prize for winning was a $250,000 one-year contract with the company.
Over the next year, she performed under the ring name Hope for multiple NXT live events alongside current NXT Women's Champion and former Tough Enough competitor Mandy Rose.
Unfortunately, she failed to impress the top bosses in the company and was released in 2017. Since then, she has trained with Team Vision Dojo in Orlando, Florida.
The cause of Sara's death hasn't been confirmed by the family yet. A few days ago, she took to Instagram to reveal that she was rejoining the gym after a sinus infection. We at Sportskeeda Wrestling are deeply saddened by Sara Lee's passing. Our thoughts are with her family and loved ones.

In December 2017, The Tough Enough winner tied the knot with former WWE superstar Wesley Blake. The couple have a daughter, Piper Weston, born on May 1, 2017, and a son named Brady born on February 27, 2019.
