Many WWE personalities, including Damian Priest and Maxxine Dupri, have reacted to former Stamford-based promotion star CJ Perry's (FKA Lana) emotional update after major surgery.
Perry started her career in World Wrestling Entertainment in 2013 as a manager of her real-life husband, Miro (formerly Rusev). She started competing inside the ring in 2016 and feuded with Brie Bella and Naomi. However, on June 2, 2021, Lana was released by the Stamford-based promotion.
She recently debuted in AEW on September 3, 2023, where her husband also performs after getting released by WWE in April 2021 due to the COVID-19-related budget cuts.
