WWE fans will best remember Erika Hammond as NXT announcer Veronica Lane in 2013
Jain also shared a video of him, former wrestler Erika Hammond, with the caption, “Our wedding in Egypt. 4/26/2024 Thank you to everyone who came to celebrate with us!! To our families!!”
Hammond is better known to WWE fans as Veronica Lane, who competed on the company’s developmental brand NXT from 2013 to 2014, first as an in-ring competitor before transitioning to ring announcer and backstage interviewer.
She debuted in 2013 with a beauty queen character in October 2013, teaming with future World Champion Becky Lynch in a tag team match against Paige and another future WWE superstar Bayley.
However, her in-ring career was short-lived and by the time she made her TV debut in December, she was placed as a ring announcer by the brand and would make further appearances interviewing talent in backstage segments.
She left WWE in September 2014 and has since embarked on a successful fitness career by co-founding Rumble Boxing, where she is one of the leading trainers and coach to a number of celebrities.
It was at the gym that Hammond met 32-year-old Jarin, and it led to their week-long celebrations across Africa.
