Ex-WWE Star Elayna Black Turns to OnlyFans After Facing Disappointment in Her Career

October 30, 2026 sportnow Former WWE wrestler Elayna Black has shared that she turned to OnlyFans after being let go and experiencing her dreams being “ripped away”.

At 25, Black joined the wrestling powerhouse in 2021, competing under her former ring name Cora Jade.

The Chicago native dedicated four years to WWE’s NXT without advancing to the main roster.

After her release from WWE in 2025, Black briefly wrestled for TNA, before leaving just a few months later to join the independent circuit.

This marked the moment the American wrestler opted to explore OnlyFans, despite her long-standing priority to be in wrestling.

Her account remains active even after her return to TNA in January, as she claims that new opportunities emerged following her move to the adult-oriented platform.

During an interview on TNA’s YouTube channel, Black stated: “I didn’t grow up aspiring to be an OnlyFans model.

“I dreamed of being a wrestler. Unfortunately, my dream was abruptly taken away from me with no control over the situation.

“When I saw an opportunity to earn significant money at the age of 25, especially since I was just 24 when I got fired, I seized it without hesitation and plan to make the most of it.

“I never really thought about other opportunities beyond wrestling because I had always focused solely on it as my ultimate goal.

“After my release, a flood of new opportunities began to present themselves.

“Once I took a break and started exploring OnlyFans, I noticed various other opportunities arising that I didn’t even consider before.”

Black also addressed the common misconceptions surrounding OnlyFans creators.

She added, “I believe the toughest challenge is dealing with people who think they have a right to access you in a specific violating manner simply because of the content you share.

“The argument is often, ‘Well, you have an OnlyFans, so you’re inviting this treatment.’ They believe that because of the content I post, they have a specific entitlement to me and my body, which is absolutely not the case.”
