The once WWE diva Lana is back on the professional wrestling scene under her real name CJ Perry after joining All Elite Wrestling. Starting from her debut on the Tony Khan-owned promotion at All Out pay-per-view, she is acting as a manager on TV who is eager to fetch some top-notch names and to churn out celebrity mega-stars of those.
While being in the WWE, CJ Perry spent several years of her career as a manager before breaking out as a singles competitor during the past few years of her time in the company. She is now in AEW and fans wonder whether she’ll be seen in a wrestling stint. For the time being, she made it clear to be more focused on becoming a manager rather than becoming a performer in the ring.

“I want to take that spot. I want people to be like, ‘I want CJ Perry to manage me.’ I would rather do than rather than be a champion and fight whatever for championships. I want to be the best hustler for those people to be champions and create a legacy and name that way.”
