The couple worked in WWE under the names Rusev and Lana. She would generally accompany The Redeemer to the ring during his matches and played a managerial role. Rusev was released from his WWE contract in 2020, while Perry was released in June 2021.

Miro then signed with AEW in September 2020 and joined forces with Kip Sabian. His wife didn't step foot in the Jacksonville-based promotion until September 2023. Following her debut at All Out pay-per-view, the couple started feuding as The Redeemer was overprotective of her managing other male stars.

Both Perry and Miro are currently on hiatus. The former has gone through finger surgery, and The Redeemer has been nursing his injuries since the end of December.

CJ Perry reveals Miro wasn't happy with how WWE treated her

WWE was featuring Lana on its television following the release of the former United States Champion.

Speaking on Chris Van Vliet Insights, Perry claimed that her husband didn't like the way she was used and wanted her to join AEW.

"I think that Miro made me 'hot and flexible' because he was so annoyed that I was so exploited in WWE," CJ Perry said. "I don't really look at it that way. I look at it as more, I'm thankful for the opportunity. I'm glad he feels like he needs my clout."
