WWE reportedly targeting Persephone from AEW and CMLL

WWE is reportedly interested in pursuing wrestler Persephone once she is legally able to negotiate. While WWE has not been aggressively targeting talent from CMLL or AEW for its AAA programming following the signing of La Catalina, Persephone is noted as a specific exception.

Persephone currently operates under a dual contract with CMLL and AEW. Reports clarify that her current contractual status with CMLL prevented her from engaging in discussions with WWE, meaning her involvement with AEW was not a rejection of an offer from WWE.

Future interest in raiding CMLL talent could increase if AAA secures an American television deal or additional sponsorships, which would expand the budget and the need for more Mexican stars to fill programming.
