Laurel's departure from the company was confirmed in October, alongside numerous other superstars who were let go. She confirmed on social media that she doesn't intend to step away from professional wrestling and wouldn't give up.

"And in the past month, I saw it & I think everyone saw it. I broke down some of those big walls I had failed to break during LFG. My promos were showing range because I finally let go... My move set I recently developed in the ring showed aggression, everything the Legends were looking for. And I was able to showcase that in recent matches. And for me... that was a win. Maybe it came down to timing, did I break down those walls quick enough? Maybe I was just an unrecognizable name on a list, or maybe they just don't see what I see in myself. At the end of the day, the only person I have to prove my worth to is me. I'm not giving up, Jin Tala may be no more. But Leigh Laurel has always been a fighter," Laurel wrote.

Expect to see more of her on the independent circuit going forward.
