AEW Superstar Kris Statlander gave a farewell address at the December 20th Create-A-Pro Wrestling Santa’s Slay event. She said,
“I’m not good with words. I don’t know. I’m not very good at expressing my feelings. Well, as everyone here knows, I knew nothing about wrestling before I started wrestling. And I’m just very glad that — oh, I’m gonna get crying. Alright. Full disclosure. I got my period today, so I’m very [emotional] *Laughs*. I gave him a heads up before the match. But, so yeah, I just, in a weird way, wrestling saved my life, and I’d be nowhere where I am today if I didn’t meet every single one of these people here. And if they never helped me grow into ‘the alien’ I’ve become today, I just want to say to all the fans and thank you to everyone here at Create-A-Pro for helping me get to where I am and to where I keep going. I’m gonna skyrocket to the moon because that’s what aliens do. I’m gonna stop talking now.”
Statlander signed a contract with AEW earlier this month. She’ll be facing Riho at the AEW Dynamite TV tapings on January 1st, 2020. The event will be held at Daily’s Place in Jacksonville, Florida.
