The former WWE Superstar Lana recently appeared as special guest on Chris Jericho’s Talk Is Jerico Podcast and discussed about several topics including her original Survivor Series plans last year.
While speaking Lana also revealed that she and Naomi supposed to go after Natalya and Tamina Snuka for WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles and also possibly to become the champions in WWE.
“Of course I’m devastated,” Lana said. “Of course I was like, ‘Well, damn, could you at least…’ We were promised to go into a program with Nattie and Tamina after the titles, me and Naomi. To go into a program with them, go after the titles, and we were supposed to be possibly champions. All that stuff I take with a grain of salt. I was very lucky that I got booked until the day I got fired.”

Lana also further stated that she was didn’t expect her release last with three and half years left in her contract. She also brought the the new in-ring gear, which costs over $4000 to match with her tag team partner Naomi.
“It’s not fair but, you know, life isn’t fair,” Lana said. “That’s what I just remind myself when I’m like, ‘Damn, that isn’t fair.’ I had just made gear, beautiful neon glow-in-the-dark gear. Over four thousand dollars it cost, by the people that sew for all the top singers. We had planned all these new outfits we had bought, outfits that I probably won’t even wear in real life, but we had to have them glow in the dark.” (H/T: Sportskeeda)
