More Details on Paige and Alberto Del Rio Breaking Up, What’s Being Said About Their Relationship

June 29, 2017

As we reported moments ago, injured WWE star Paige will not be returning to the cast of “Total Divas” next season, and she will be replaced by Carmella. Ms. Money in the Bank joins series newcomers Alexa Bliss and Nia Jax on the show next season.

We also noted this week that Paige and Alberto Del Rio reportedly broke up, following a “blowup” in Orlando which resulted in Del Rio calling it quits on the relationship.

Dave Meltzer noted in The Wrestling Observer Newsletter that one of Del Rio’s close friends told him about the breakup, and that “it’s always possible they could get back together, but it did happen.” Meltzer added on Wrestling Observer Radio last night that while it could change, the couple was indeed broken up as of Tuesday.

Paige has been out of action with a neck injury since June of 2016, and has since violated the WWE Wellness Policy twice. Del Rio, meanwhile, will be facing Bobby Lashley in a Title Unification Match at Slammiversary this Sunday night.
