Last week, WWE Universe received a shocker with when Cathy Kelley announced that she’s leaving WWE following this past Sunday’s NXT TakeOver: Portland. It was her last day with the biggest pro-wrestling brand after spending four memorable years.
She mainly worked with the NXT brand and it’s needless to say her departure does leave a big void in the black and yellow brand’s broadcasting team.

Triple H noted on Cathy Kelley leaving the NXT brand during a media scrum after TakeOver: Portland. He noted how WWE values people who work backstage other than the wrestlers who put on a great show inside the squared circle.

Those non-wrestling entities are no less valued employees in the WWE context as this is an entire system comprising all of them. The Performance Center and NXT guys also provide big contributions to the main roster context.
Moving on from the bigger picture, The Game particularly focused on Cathy Kelley being a valuable member of the NXT broadcast team. She has been an extremely professional broadcaster which is a quality that WWE’s corporate system needs foremost. He and Stephanie McMahon have done a number of media sessions over the years and without a doubt, she will be missed during NXT broadcasts.

It’s still unknown what cause exactly led to the departure of Cathy Kelley from WWE NXT. She is yet to announce the next project waiting for her. In the meantime, Triple H noted during his comments that it might have not been the end of this pretty face on WWE TV,
“She didn’t want to break down and become emotional about it. I just told her that it’s not ‘goodbye’ as it’s ‘see you down the road.’ Life’s crazy and you could end up back in the same path and doing the same thing. There’s so many ways we could work together.

She’s phenomenal and we have other people in the pipeline – that’s what we do here. There’s another 2-3 chomping at the bit to get the opportunity and they will knock it out the park as that’s what we do. I’m thankful for the time she spent with us and I’m sure we’ll see her down the road as well.”

As noted on social media, Cathy Kelley is also missing her NXT schedule, pretty badly. It seems she was crying all the way up to her home after leaving the NXT TakeOver Portland broadcast. Afterward, she will keep herself up to date with the WWE products, at least for now.
