Former WWE Superstar discloses reaching out to Tony Khan and Triple H on potential future role in the industry

By Saunak Nag Modified 23 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Triple H and Tony Khan are rivals in the wrestling industry Former ROH star Maria Kanellis has revealed that she has spoken to both WWE and AEW regarding a future move in her career. However, Maria is no stranger to WWE, as she plied her trade in the Stamford-based promotion from 2004 to 2010. She made her way into the company through the Divas Search in 2004. Despite finishing 5th in the competition, she was hired by the global juggernaut. During a recent interview with Grapsody, she explained that she has spoken to both Triple H and Tony Khan regarding her next move. She also highlighted that she is aiming to create more opportunities for women in the wrestling industry. “It’s really hard looking ‘where do I go next?’ I talked to Tony Khan, I talked to Triple H, I talk to Scott all the time. Recently, I talked to WOW. It’s a very interesting time for me. For me, it’s about creating opportunities for all of the women I’m working with now.” (H/T WrestlingNews.co) She added that she has a return to WWE on her mind because of her husband Mike Bennett's history with the promotion. She also underlined the reasons why she also desires to be in AEW. “Then I look at AEW where they have some of the greatest tag teams in the world. Competition-wise, there is that at AEW. The fact that the boys have never gotten in there with FTR. I look at all of these things and go, ‘sh*t.’ Then, where is Ring of Honor going to go? I think it’s an amazing time in wrestling right now.” (H/T WrestlingNews.co) d.@paigesvegaone woman i will never say a bad thing about is maria kanellis, she’s genuinely such an advocate for women in wrestling and i don’t think she gets enough credit236one woman i will never say a bad thing about is maria kanellis, she’s genuinely such an advocate for women in wrestling and i don’t think she gets enough credit

I absolutely love what we’re doing there.” (H/T WrestlingNews.co) Dylan The Mesh@DylanMeshMaria Kanellis has had a longer tenure in wrestling than most people of her era and I think that’s pretty rad.2Maria Kanellis has had a longer tenure in wrestling than most people of her era and I think that’s pretty rad.
