CJ Perry spent several years of her career in WWE as a manager before breaking out as a singles competitor towards the last year of her time in the company. She is now in AEW and fans wonder if she’ll ever wrestle again. Perry made it clear that she is more focused on becoming a manager on the same level as Paul Heyman.
Paul Heyman is undoubtedly one of the greatest talkers on the microphone, whose incredible skills as a manager have helped put over numerous stars over the years, especially CM Punk, Brock Lesnar and now Roman Reigns.
While speaking to Chris Van Vliet, CJ Perry was asked if she would wrestle in AEW. Perry stated that she wants to be the best manager of all time and take Paul Heyman’s spot in that regard, rather than fight for championships.
”I want to be the best of all time. I want to be the best wrestling manager of all time. I want to be when people think of, I, people often want to be managed by Paul Heyman, because he is the best manager of all time right now, right?
I want to take that spot. I want people to be like, ‘I want CJ Perry to manage me.’ I would rather do than rather than be a champion and fight whatever for championships. I want to be the best hustler for those people to be champions and create a legacy and name that way.”
CJ Perry was also warned about CM Punk chants before her AEW debut. Perry was at ringside for Action Andretti’s match with Miro on last week’s Collision, where Miro decimated Andretti. It remains to be seen if Perry will ever become a manager on the same level as Paul Heyman one day.
