-- Torrie Wilson has finally broken her silence regarding her recent departure from World Wrestling Entertainment. Torrie posted the following message on her MySpace page:

Well, I guess by now you have heard the news that I have severed my ties to the WWE. I would like to say that I have enjoyed 7 awesome years with The WWE and wouldn't trade any of my experiences for anything in the world. I have seen more places and met more friends and wonderful fans than I ever dreamed of when I pretty much fell into this business. From the very first time I stepped out into a packed arena, I was hooked on that adrenaline rush and knew that I would be around for a while. I really did fall in love with everything about wrestling and I can tell you all that I feel so absolutely honored to have spent the time I did working for Vince McCmahon and his family and having the opportunity to work with so many really talented and genuine superstars.
You probably have heard about my ongoing back problems and it may even seem crazy....I mean, I wasn't exactly wrestling every single week on television but I was wrestling at least 3 days per week on non-televised shows....as well as practicing more than it appeared! I just believe that sometimes people's bodies can handle more than others and mine is finally telling me it has had enough! It might seem weird, but my thoughts in the last few months have been that if I can't deliver beyond my expectations and I can't continue to grow as a superstar...well, what exactly am I going to do? I may not be remembered for my "wrestling skills", but I damn sure can tell you that anyone that knows me well knows that I don't do sitting around too well.
I can't begin to tell all of you how much your support over the years has meant to me and I really want you to know that I am not going to disappear...I am just on to a different chapter of my life and career at this point.
I love you all and hope that you know that I will always see the positive in every situation. NOTHING can slow me down and I hope that nothing slows any of you down either...we just have to always look at everyday as a blessing and remember that everything happens for a reason!
Thanks for an unbelievable 7 years and I will see you soon!
