Scarlett Bordeaux Says WWE Asked Her To Cover Up Cleavage

Posted by admin on May 18th, 2026

Scarlett Bordeaux has shared new details about her time in WWE, revealing frustrations over repeated requests from producers to tone down her on-screen appearance.

Speaking on a podcast hosted by D-Von Dudley, Bordeaux explained that she was frequently asked backstage to adjust her ring gear to be less revealing—something she felt conflicted with the character she was brought in to portray.

“I won’t say who, but some of the producers, every single time, like, before going out there, they’d be like, ‘Can you just cover up the cleavage? Can you just pull that down?’ I’m like, OK, this is clearly not what we’re going for right now.”

Bordeaux noted that the mixed messaging left her questioning her role in the company, especially since she believed she had been signed specifically for her established persona.

“After a few months, I’m like, what am I gonna do here? Because I thought they signed me for this character, and they said they liked it, but they don’t want to use it.”

Her comments highlight the broader shift in WWE’s presentation of women’s wrestling over the past decade. The company moved away from the “Divas Era”—which emphasized glamour and character presentation—toward a more athletic and competition-focused approach.

That transition was formalized in 2016 when WWE retired the Divas branding at WrestleMania 32, marking the beginning of what became known as the Women’s Evolution. The change brought longer matches, more main event opportunities, and a greater emphasis on in-ring performance.

Bordeaux’s experience reflects the tension that can arise when a performer’s established character doesn’t fully align with a company’s evolving creative direction.
