Simone Biles’ Millionaire Ex-boyfriend Was Forced to Give Up His WWE Dream for a Heartbreaking Reason

Popular gymnast Simone Biles was engaged to an NFL player Jonathan Owens, which they announced in February. However, prior to Owens, she was in a relationship with a gymnast turned WWE superstar Stacey Ervin Jr. for three years.

Biles and Ervin were dating between 2017 to 2020. During this period, Ervin was pursuing a WWE career while Biles was growing into her gymnast career.

Stacy Ervin Jr. signed a WWE contract in 2018 and was on NXT for quite some time and impressed many.

The reason Stacy Ervin Jr. left WWE?

Stacy Ervin Jr. was considered a potential WWE superstar for the future. He combined elements of wrestling and gymnastics in the ring, however, left WWE a year later. Dave Meltzer later shared the reason for Ervin leaving in his Wrestling Observer Figure Four Online.

He said, ?Stacey Ervin Jr., the gymnast who everyone was raving about, looks to be quitting pro wrestling. The official story at press time is that Ervin is on hiatus while he makes up his mind what he wants to do, and remains under contract to the company. He is most likely done but has not made that decision 100 percent.”

“He got dropped on his head by Montez Ford on 1/30 and wasn?t cleared to return until 3/1. He worked four matches in early March, and hasn?t worked since a 3/8 bout with Daniel Vidot. The reports were that due to concussion symptoms he decided that this isn?t what he wanted to do,” he added.

In April 2019, Ervin shared a post on his Instagram confirming parting ways with WWE. The caption was, ?The threads of life are so interesting the way they weave a story. ?

• It is true. I have parted ways with WWE/NXT. It was not an easy decision, but it was a decision that I felt was right for me. ??

• The experiences I have earned, the friendships that I have gained, the fans that supported me, & the lessons I have learned will ALWAYS hold a special place in my life. ?

• Although I decided that my journey as a WWE Superstar would end, I have not given up, & never will give up, my work of creating my envisioned life. Life is too precious to not pursue that which sets your soul on fire. ?

• As I move into a new phase of my life, with new priorities, goals, & aspirations, I aim to continue my pursuit of excellence. It is my sincere hope that you all continue to find inspiration from my journey, & I ask only for continued support. My family, friends, & fans are nothing short of incredible, & I want you to know that I appreciate the positive vibes from each & every single one of you. ??

• We all move forward. We all continue the journey through ups, & downs. This was just a part of my story. A story that I intend to tell nothing other than greatness. ?

• Thank you all for sticking with me, & supporting me in all that I do. God bless. Ride the wave. ?

• P.s. Someone told me that I was the highest flyer in WWE history (air time / height from the canvas). If someone could please help confirm that, that?d be an awesome fact for the grandkids someday. ??

The high-flying superstar had matches at NXT house shows and also wrestled one match on NXT television during his time with the company. The last time Ervin wrestled was on March 8 before suffering a concussion scare.
