Returning WWE Superstar opens up about his wife rejoining the company
WWE Superstars often meet their significant others while working for the company. One veteran star recently returned and has just opened up on his wife's future.
Shawn Spears and Cassie Lee met while they were working for WWE. The former Tye Dillinger and the former Peyton Royce tied the knot in August 2019, just months after Spears' departure. Lee was cut two years later and went to TNA before taking maternity leave from the business in 2022.
The Chairman recently returned to NXT and is having a great run. Speaking to Fightful Select, the 43-year-old was asked if Cassie would like to work at the Performance Center as she has a wealth of knowledge about the business. A potential PC job would also keep Lee close to her husband.
Spears noted that he is all for the former IIconics member going back to work for the company at the Performance Center if she wants to come back. He added that he would be the one to stay home with the kids.

"Fantastic wrestler. He's a good trainer, you know. He's what they would call a good brother, brother," EC3 said of Shawn Spears. [From 6:00 onwards]
