Former WWE Star Willing To Shut Down Exclusive Content Site To Return To The Company

Exclusive content in the professional wrestling world has been a hot topic recently as WWE reportedly released Mandy Rose due to some of the content she posted on her FanTime page. However, it seems that things are going well for Mandy Rose at the moment as FanTime recently confirmed on social media that the former NXT Women’s Champion made $1 million dollars in a month.

Mandy Rose isn’t the only wrestling star to find success with exclusive content as CJ Perry (formerly known as Lana) has also done well with her site CJPerry.com. During an appearance on The Bailey Show, CJ Perry confirmed that she’s made more money with her website than she did with WWE, but she also noted that she would be willing to shut it down if there was an opportunity for her to return to the company.

“My last couple of years in WWE, I had an incredible and very lucrative contract that I had worked very hard and long for, which was an incredible blessing that I’m thankful for. Even on CJPerry.com, in the last six months, I’ve grossed more than I did in my highest-paying WWE contract. I’m thankful for that. In the business that we’re in and the times that we’re in, you have to capitalize on everything because you don’t know how long it’s going to last. Instagram from 2010 to 2014, you grew much faster. 2017, 18, 19, you could get all these deals on Instagram, super high-paying deals. It’s not like that anymore. Things are always changing and evolving so quickly. You have to seize the moment because it might be gone tomorrow. I’m a big believer in saying, ‘Yes.’ I’m blessed to have this opportunity, but I would always return to wrestling.”

“If WWE were to call me tomorrow and be like, ‘we want you back,’ it’s not about the money. I would shut the site down and go back because WWE is one of the greatest franchises in the world. Life is not just about money, you have to do what you love. There is nothing in the world like wrestling and if the opportunity was right for me to return and tell compelling stories and burn the house down, I’ll come back and do it for free.”

CJ Perry also recently said during an interview that she’s sure Rusev Day will make a return to WWE at some point. CJ’s husband Miro is currently signed to AEW, but he is not on TV at the moment and only wrestled four matches in 2022. Stay tuned for updates.
