Ivelisse Seemingly Gone From All Elite Wrestling

Ivelisse has been absent from AEW television for over a month, with recent reports suggesting she had some issues backstage.

She took to Twitter, writing “History repeats itself unfortunately. I speak up about mistreatment and get let go. Thats life.”

Earlier this month, The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reported “there was an issue with her and ‘a few’ coaches and she’s not being booked right now”. She was previously working under a per-event deal, and not a full-time contract with the company.

Fightful Select (subscription required) added, Ivelisse has not been present at AEW tapings as of late. Some talent within the company believe she will not return to AEW following “well-known disagreements with agents backstage”.

Ivelisse and Diamante won the AEW Deadly Draw women’s tag team tournament last summer, after defeating Allie and Brandi Rhodes.

Prior to joining AEW, she was best known for her work in Lucha Underground, and Shine Wrestling. She currently holds the Shine Championship.
