May 16, 2025, marked three years since Naomi and Sasha Banks - now AEW star Mercedes Moné, walked out of WWE in protest over the direction of the Women’s Tag Team Division. Their exit, just minutes before Monday Night RAW went on air, stunned fans and caused a rare on-air statement from WWE. Now, Naomi has finally broken her silence on the infamous moment.
Taking to social media, the SmackDown star responded to a post commemorating the walkout anniversary. Quoting the image, she wrote: “On this day caution was proceeded,” using the caution emoji, a nod to her current heel persona. The statement, cryptic but pointed, acknowledged the controversial event that changed the trajectory of both their careers.
Naomi discusses motherhood and healthWhile Naomi remains a featured performer on SmackDown, she recently admitted that her time in WWE may soon come to an end.
Speaking candidly about her personal life, the 37-year-old revealed she’s seriously considering retirement due to health concerns and a long-held desire to start a family.
“I always wanted kids young. I always wanted a lot,” she said in an emotional statement. “Even if I wanted to continue wrestling longer, my biological clock - I can't. I have only one ovary, and I’ve had health issues. We’ve got a lot to figure out.”
Naomi’s comments come as she rides momentum from her “Caution” gimmick - a darker, more calculated version of herself that emerged during her feud with Jade Cargill ahead of WrestleMania 41.
Where are they now?Following the 2022 walkout, Naomi briefly joined TNA as Trinity, where she captured the Knockouts Championship. She returned to WWE in early 2024, entering the Women’s Royal Rumble to a strong reception.
Mercedes Moné, meanwhile, took a different route. After stints in NJPW and Stardom, she officially signed with AEW in 2024 and continues to make waves in the promotion, most recently competing for the Owen Hart Cup.
Despite going in different directions, the anniversary post and fan reactions show that the moment still holds emotional weight - for the stars and their supporters alike.
As Naomi continues her current WWE run, her recent remarks indicate the clock may be ticking. Whether she steps away soon or later, her legacy as a fearless performer and history-maker is firmly intact.
