Comments
For Aleah James: You were kept under contract with a handful of other NXTUK talent. Seemingly there were barriers for talent to come in state-side initially beyond short spells. Were you ever cleared to make the transition state-side and what was the process like? Also, prior to NXTUK being shuttered there was a really diverse and talented women’s division there with great young talent and some veterans seemingly lead by Meiko. What was was it like learning from each other in that environment?
