Layla El is stepping back into the spotlight—but this time, she’s grabbing the mic, not the ring gear.
The former WWE Divas Champion just announced her brand-new podcast titled LayTalk, and she’s not holding anything back. Speaking on a recent episode of Developmentally Speaking, Layla confirmed the show will focus exclusively on the WWE Divas era—one of the most talked-about and misunderstood periods in wrestling history.
“I am also having a podcast that will launch very soon. It’s called LayTalk. It’s going to be dedicated to the Diva era,” Layla revealed. “It’s also going to give you insight on different Divas’ careers and also insight on some of the stuff that happened backstage that you guys would never, ever, ever get to know.”
That’s not all. She’s lining up interviews with some of your favorite former WWE Divas to give the full story straight from the source.
“I’m going to have the Divas actually on the show, so it’s not just going to be me talking,” she added. “I’m going to get interviews with most of the Divas, if not all of the Divas, and just to show you that the Diva era was something—it was significant.”
Layla says LayTalk will go beyond gossip and nostalgia. She wants to spotlight where these women are now and how they really feel about the current era of women’s wrestling.
“To go back down memory lane and also to see where your Divas are now, what they’re up to, what they’re doing, what they feel about The New Generation,” she said. “It’s going to be just a great, great podcast if you guys are Diva fans.”
The show also promises to dig into how the women were treated during that time—something fans still debate online to this day. “If you do want to learn some more stuff about the Diva Search girls as well and how the women were treated back then in that time, in that era, and then you guys can make a decision like, you know, was the divas that bad? I don’t know,” she teased.
Layla closed the segment by reiterating the name of her new show: “It’s going to be called LayTalk. So that will be out soon.”
