The WWE fans were taken by surprise when former champion Mickie James took to her social media account and shared a snap of her goodies which were sent by the WWE in a bin bag. The five-time champion Mickie James along with several other superstars were released by the WWE earlier this month.
"Dear @VinceMcMahon Im not sure if you're aware, I did receive my @WWE care package today. Thank you. #AlwaysBlessedandGrateful #WomensWrestlingMatters Kiss mark," said Mickie James.

Gail Kim too reacted to Mickie James’ post and revealed that similar incidents have been happening for a very long time. However, she was glad that Triple H and the WWE took action.
Well I’m glad Hunter took initiative but it’s been happening since before I was there. Is it always the same person? At least they did something I suppose 🤷🏻♀️ https://t.co/lrTXx4gGay
