Arianna Grace is the daughter of former WWE Superstar Santino Marella. Although Santino portrayed an Italian gimmick, Grace is not from Italy. She was born in Canada and is a mix of Italian, Finnish, Pakistani, and Metis descent. The 27-year-old even competed in the Miss Universe Canada pageant, finishing in the top 20. She started her NXT career in 2022 and has been a regular feature on TV since.
Grace's career got derailed when she sustained an injury last year, forcing her to be on the sidelines. She was even seen sporting a sling at the Promolympics event at the Performance Center in August of last year. And now it appears that she had been working towards something else also. The NXT star took to her X (fka Twitter) account to announce that she was now a citizen of the United States.

It's great to see that Arianna Grace has successfully become a citizen of the United States of America, making it easier for her to live and work in the country. She will hopefully be back in the ring soon, once she recovers from her injury.

A wrestling aficionado since childhood, Sunil used to imitate his favorite wrestlers as a young kid, and started writing professionally about the sport via Sportskeeda’s revenue-sharing opportunity.
Sunil admires former world champions AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, and Kenny Omega for their ability to consistently deliver great matches as well as entertain crowds with their mic skills.
If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
