Ruby Soho headed to a hiatus following pregnancy announcement
This news certainly confirms that Ruby Soho will not be competing shortly on All Elite Wrestling as she gears up to become a mother. However, that shouldn’t mark a permanent halt to her career given that pregnancy doesn’t anymore threaten to derail a female wrestler’s career. For the time being, the real-life couple of All Elite Wrestling should enjoy the time while getting ready for parenthood.
Ruby Soho will also join an elite club of wrestlers who prove themselves in the ring before becoming super moms. In December 2020, Becky Lynch gave birth to her and Seth Rollins’ daughter Roux and returned to TV at SummerSlam 2021. In that same year, her former rival Ronda Rousey had a daughter with Travis Browne. Alexa Bliss and her husband Ryan Cabrera also gave birth to their daughter, Hendrix Rouge Cabrera, last year.
Before this, Ruby Soho was involved in an on-screen angle with Angelo Parker acting as her boyfriend. In a backstage segment of the January 12 episode of AEW Rampage, Saraya and Renee Paquette wished Happy Birthday to Soho and the latter was supposed to receive a gift. It appeared in the form of a video segment on TV where Parker was seen kissing Saraya’s ally, Harley Cameron. But it was a setup only by Saraya so that Parker gets on the bad books of Cameron.
