CJ Perry (Lana) Says She Was Shocked After Learning About WWE Legends Deal, ‘I’m On My Way To The Hall Of Fame’

CJ Perry discusses her WWE Legends deal and how she reacted when she found out.

In April, Rusev made his return to WWE after a year off wrestling TV following his run with AEW.

Upon his television return on WWE Raw, it was announced that CJ Perry (Lana in WWE) had signed a Legends deal with the promotion.

Speaking to TMZ, Perry commented on her Legends deal.

“Yes, I am a legend, I’m a bona fide legend. No big deal. I know, I’m shocked too. I was shocked when they called me. My agent called me, from Paradigm, and I cried. I just couldn’t believe it. Now, I’m having fun with it. You’re gonna have to get used to it. On my way to the WWE Hall of Fame,” she said.

Perry has not returned to television alongside Rusev, and it is unknown if she will return. She has not been on television since 2023 when her run with AEW also finished.
