Indi Hartwell: Don’t Cry That It’s Over, Smile That It Happened

This week, Indi Hartwell’s time with WWE came to an end as she was part of releases that also saw Baron Corbin and Tegan Nox cut from the company. While it’s never fun to lose one’s job, Hartwell took to Instagram this week to share that she’s focusing on the positives at this unfortunate time.

I got to live out a childhood dream for the last 5 years and I’m so grateful!

I’m just a girl from Australia who never took naur for an answer and made her dreams a reality. It all started with a match in Brooklyn at the Barclays Center and fittingly, ends there too.

Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened ?

Hartwell signed with WWE in 2019 and would align with The Way the following year. Indi’s time with the Johnny Gargano-led faction would see herself and Candice LeRae win the NXT Women’s Tag Titles in 2021 and hold the gold for 63 days. At NXT Stand & Deliver in April 2023, Hartwell won the NXT Women’s Championship, but vacated the gold after being drafted to Raw. Her 31-day reign with the gold remains the shortest reign of anyone in the title’s history.

Hartwell’s on-screen marriage to Dexter Lumis would also prove popular with fans but was not addressed when either Superstar arrived on the main roster. Now, the Australian wrestler will have to re-establish herself outside of WWE, but remains hopeful for the future and positive about her time as a Superstar. Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest on Indi Hartwell and her future outside WWE.
