Sara Weston, better known in the wrestling world as Sara Lee, has passed away at the age of 30.
Lee won the sixth season of the Tough Enough competition and earned a one-year contract with the WWE in 2015. She’d have her first match under on the NXT brand during a house show on Jan. 30, 2016, and would go on to wrestle seven more matches before being released by WWE in September of that year.
She married fellow WWE star Wesley Blake (real name Cory Weston) in December 2017. Together the pair had two kids, a daughter named Piper and a son named Brady.
The news was broken by Lee’s mother on Facebook on Thursday. She wrote, “It is with heavy hearts we wanted to share that our Sara Weston has gone to be with Jesus. We are all in shock and arrangements are not complete. We ask that you respectfully let our family mourn. We all need prayers especially Cory and her children.”
There is no word right now on what led to her passing.
