Your thoughts on that. This is message below is from her myspace blog ,
Hey MySpacers!
It’s been announced on WWE. com, so I guess I should address it. This Friday’s Smackdown is my last match with WWE. I started with the company in 2000. I have had so many once in a lifetime experiences. It’s been incredible. I was part of an era in Women’s Professional Wrestling that will never be duplicated again.
Choosing to leave was a very difficult decision. I think many of my colleagues considered me a “lifer”. That is, they thought I’d be with WWE until I was old and grey. But I was not happy with the oppurtunities that were available to me within WWE. And at the end of the day, there are thousands and thousands of women who would kill or die for the chance to be a WWE Diva. It isn’t right for me to fill that spot if my heart weren’t in it.
And I didn’t make a rash decision to walk away. On many occasions I pushed for the Victoria that I’d want to watch. But we were on different pages. I respect their decisions, and they are their decisions to make. Being with WWE is very time consuming. And again, with where we were at, I would rather spend more time at home.
I am a “lifer” though. That may not be WWE for life (although I will always be a fan). But I will always challenge myself. I am a competitor. As you can see from one of the pics in my photo gallery, I’ve been training in Jiu Jitsu. I started for the conditioning, but I have really excelled. It has crossed my mind to enter MMA. I’ve also been learning to DJ. I love music, and this girl has been getting her mix on. Of course I have the custom car shop, Black Widow Customs. And I haven’t ruled out the idea of jumping back in the squared circle occasionally down the road.
I am just so thankful for the experiences that I have had with WWE, for the great friends that I have made with WWE, and the best fans in the world that I have encountered because of WWE.
So what am I doing first? I’m on vacation! I’m not going to say where I am, but it’s warm, and I can look out the window and see palm trees, and I’ll be here for a couple weeks. I have been getting bombarded with requests for interviews and appearances. As for appearances, you can contact me through MySpace for now. When I decide what direction I intend to take, I will acquire appropriate representation, and will pass info along to them.
As for interview requests, several people have emailed me regarding “shoot interviews”. I would like to say this. I am a fan of the Willy Wonka movie. I won a golden ticket. I was in Willy Wonka’s Magical Chocolate Factory for nine years. If you’re looking for an Everlasting Gobstopper, don’t waste your time asking. It’s not for sale.
Finally, I want to thank all my MySpace Friends for your encouragement. I truly feel that we are friends, and I appreciate your support. I will keep blogging, and hope you all keep in touch.
Later Sweet Potaters, Lisa Marie aka Victoria : )

I think it’s quite sad how WWE mistreated her towards the end of her career, she even lost her final match.
im happy that victoria is now leaving the WWE
well yes is true she has retired from wrestling
sadly to say wwe kind off made her in a jobber where she could off had a last run as diva champion or at least give her a shot at it
and plus i think she was getting to that age now where she is past her prime and maybe we might see her making an appearance some staged in the future
It’s a shame she’s retired but from what I read she sound happy now. And thats the most important thing
LONG LIVE VICTORIA……YOU WILL BE MISSED 
That’s sad, WWE completely stopped pushing her towards the end of her career, and in my opinion her and Beth Phoenix are the best female wrestlers of this era. Good luck to her in the future
This just makes me more and more afraid of what will end up of some of WWE’s best divas that have yet to leave what will happen to them will they spend there last months jobbing to untalented pretty faces like Victoria? It is just so sad that she has to go out this way im really going to miss her and i hope WWE knows they have lost one of there best and its there owen fault.
maybe she is i dont know i hope she does i dont like her
Victoria. . . What a babe <3
That sucks. I saw her last match, and I have to say I was dissapointed with how the WWE has treated her for the last couple of months. Ever since she walked into the ring she was a great athlete, gorgeous looking, and one of the best divas out there. She could actually fight, unlike some of these other girls. She was used, made fun of, and embarrassed during her final weeks there. I can see why she would get away from all that. Although WWE will never know how great she was, because everyone there is expendable. I am also looking forward to see Natalya get in the ring. I see her becoming really successful in the WWE. Perhaps she can be the most dominant diva in the History of the WWE. It also doesn’t hurt that she is Part of the Hart Family. Long Live the Hart Foundation,
