Lana mother coronavirus: Lana’s WWE career
CJ Perry signed a deal with WWE in 2013 despite having no wrestling background. She made her WWE NXT debut on October 2013 as Rusev’s manager, Lana. Despite being an American, Lana learned Russian to develop her in-ring character and to deliver believable promos. The two were loved by fans in NXT and they soon moved to the main WWE roster. Rusev and Lana dominated from the start as Rusev’s in-ring performances and Lana’s promo delivery captured the attention of WWE fans. Within few months in WWE, Rusev became the United States Champion and the duo went on to work with WWE legends like John Cena, Big Show and The Rock.
In 2016, Lana and Rusev tied the knot but started making solo appearances in the ring. Lana then took a long break from wrestling and started focusing on her modelling career. Lana returned as a heel character as she betrayed Rusev and kissed Bobby Lashley in front of her husband. After Rusev was released from his WWE contract, Lana remained in character, mocking him on social media. Lana then began a feud with MVP, after he tried to gain Bobby Lashley as an ally. Since the past few weeks, Lana is managing Natalya and it is reported that WWE will start a major storyline involving the two.
