CJ Perry has denied the rumors that she is dating Damian Priest.
The former WWE and AEW star was married to her on-screen client Miro. She was with the former Rusev for nearly a decade, starting during their time in NXT together. However, the pair divorced late last year, following a failed storyline in AEW that saw her manage Andrade in matches against the Bulgarian Brute.
Between then and now, rumors swirled that CJ Perry was dating WWE’s Damian Priest. This was fueled by her posting a photo alongside Priest to celebrate his Money in the Bank cash in at WrestleMania 40.
CJ Perry spoke about the rumor that she is dating Damian Priest during a Q&A session on Instagram. The former WWE star denied she was dating the former World Heavyweight champion, calling it a “funny internet rumor”.
She added that she had so many DM’s asking if she was dating the guys she posted on her Instagram story. She clarified that she has guy friends, and is not always dating somebody new since her divorce from Miro.
“No. I am not dating Damian Priest. That was very much a funny internet rumor. You know what’s funny for me? If I post a guy it’s like gasps! All of my guy friends were cracking up. In March and April every time I posted them on story, they were like in my DM’s ‘Is that your new boyfriend?’. Like guys, I have guy friends.”
