WWE Reportedly Interested In Signing AEW Star When Contract Expires

WWE has an interest in Persephone. According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, those within WWE are already discussing trying to sign her when her dual contract with AEW and CMLL expires later this year.

The report states: “Those in WWE are already talking about trying to get Persephone when her dual contract expires later this year.”

Persephone has been working under her dual deal with both AEW and CMLL, where she has established herself as one of the more intriguing female talents in the lucha libre world.  The timing of the report is notable given WWE’s recent track record of aggressively pursuing talent from both AEW and the broader wrestling landscape when contracts come up.

The company has been particularly active in building out its women’s division in recent years, adding names from across the industry as it looks to keep pace with the depth of talent available on the independent and international circuits.

No details have been reported on whether AEW has made any effort to retain Persephone ahead of her contract expiration, or whether CMLL’s involvement in any potential renewal discussions could complicate matters. The report does not specify the exact date her deal is set to expire, only that it is expected to lapse sometime in 2026.
