AEW stars CJ Perry and Miro recently shocked fans by announcing the end of their over 7 years of marriage. This unexpected development has left the wrestling world buzzing with speculation about what led to this surprising split. As a power couple both in and out of the ring, their relationship was admired by many, making this news even more shocking. Fans are eager to uncover the reasons behind this sudden breakup and how it might impact their careers moving forward.
Marriage isn’t a forever thing in Hollywood as it’s mostly portrayed to be, it’s bound to end even after several years of being together and sharing great moments and memories. It’s the end of the marriage journey for both CJ Perry and Miro.
TMZ reports that the famous, now-former couple — who also play a married couple in the ring — broke up once and for all in winter 2023 … after years of an on-again, off-again relationship.
The couple said their “I dos” in July 2016 … a couple of years after they began dating.
We reached out to Perry, formerly known as Lana in WWE, who confirmed the split
“Miro and I have made the difficult decision to separate after many wonderful years together, and have decided to move on as friends, and hopefully onscreen characters somewhere down the road,” CJ told us.
As for what went wrong, our sources say there wasn’t an explosive fight or cheating … they simply grew apart over the years.
In fact, we’re told Perry and Miro, known as Rusev in World Wrestling Entertainment, remain friends and still plan to work together in the future.
It’s likely music to the ears of the executives at All Elite Wrestling — where both are employed — as the wrestling stars have portrayed themselves as a married couple going back a decade to WWE, through present-day AEW.
CJ and Miro, a former AEW TNT and 3x WWE United States champion, were last photographed out together in public in late 2022… and it’s been a couple of months since they’ve wrestled together on TV.
From on-screen chemistry to real-life challenges, their decision to part ways amicably after 7+ years together sheds light on the intricacies of growing apart yet maintaining respect. As they transition from spouses to friends, the impact of their divorce resonates beyond the ring, showcasing maturity in handling life’s curveballs.
