Layla, who joined WWE in 2006 and retired from in ring competition in 2015 after nearly a decade with the company, opened up on INSIGHT with Chris Van Vliet. The host asked whether WWE had approached her about appearing in events such as the Women's Royal Rumble or Evolution.

Layla on the 2021 WWE offer

Layla confirmed the company reached out on multiple occasions. She said the most recent invitation arrived in 2021 while she was keeping major news private.

Yeah, actually there was. I got invited to a couple of [things], I can't remember exactly which ones, but the last time I think they invited me was in 2021, but I was pregnant. I didn't tell people,

That sheds light on why a comeback never materialized even as WWE brought back numerous legends and former champions in recent years.

Layla also addressed the possibility of a future appearance. She reiterated that she has no interest in returning for another full time run and does not want to tarnish her legacy, but she would consider the right one off opportunity.

If it was a one-off thing, an anniversary show or something like that, maybe. Yeah, maybe. I think so. If the offer comes, then probably. Yeah, I probably would say yes.

Before stepping away, Layla became a Divas Champion and formed the popular LayCool partnership with Michelle McCool. A full return is not confirmed, though a one off appearance no longer appears completely off the table.
