Former TNA Knockout Velvet Sky has confirmed that she is indeed gone from TNA Wrestling after she asked – and was granted – her release from the company.

“I have been granted my release by TNA at this time. It’s what’s best for me right now and I wanted to thank TNA and all the fans for their constant support in me,” Sky wrote in a statement.

The former Knockouts champion also thanked Vince Russo in her statement for “creating and believing” in the team of The Beautiful People.
