A popular female AEW star turned heel on Dynamite after losing a high-stakes match. Some time later, the star delivered a chilling warning in an exclusive interview.<\/p>\n
We are talking about Mexico’s very own Persephone, who officially joined AEW in January and signed a dual contract with the Jacksonville-based promotion and CMLL, where she is the Women’s World Champion. Last night on Dynamite, Persephone competed in a high-stakes six-woman Survival of the Fittest elimination match for the TBS Championship, also featuring Kris Statlander<\/a>, Maika, Harley Cameron, Hikaru Shida, and Queen Aminata. Despite a valiant effort, the Mexican star lost to Hikaru Shida, who was crowned the new champion<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/template><\/p>\n Some time after the match, Persephone appeared in an AEW-exclusive interview, which the promotion released on X via its official handle. In that interview, Persephone seemingly turned heel by throwing shade at her TBS title match opponents, calling them gullible and pathetic, then stating that she is ready to step on whoever she needs to achieve her goals and doesn’t give a f**k if you (fans) didn’t support her.<\/p>\n “Tonight, I didn’t win the TBS Championship, but I think I left with something even better, because we all learned that the great women of AEW, like Harley (Cameron), Queen Aminata, and even Kris Statlander, are some of the most gullible and pathetic women I’ve ever seen…I am done playing nice. Tonight, I found your weaknesses, and I will continue to use and exploit every single one. I will step on whoever I need to step on to get to where I want to be…So if you’re not a fan, I don’t give a flying f**k,” said Persephone.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Check out AEW’s Persephone exclusive below: <\/em><\/p>\n Earlier this year, reports surfaced that Perseohone was attracting interest from WWE<\/a>, with the Stamford-based promotion<\/a> looking to sign her once her current deal expires later this year. In a recent Fightful<\/a><\/em> interview, the CMLL Women’s World Champion addressed the interest, saying there were no concrete talks.<\/p>\n “I learned of the interest from others. I\u2019ve been in Mexico for three, four years now, I wasn\u2019t fully aware of the US scene or how contracts in the US work. I\u2019ve always just been in Mexico doing my thing. So from what I understood, while being under contract with CMLL, I don\u2019t think there was a way to have communication. I learned after the fact and everything from media and everything. I think it\u2019s really crazy, right?”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n It will be interesting to see what the future holds for Persephone in All Elite Wrestling. <\/p>\n Please credit AEW and give an H\/T to Sportskeeda Wrestling for the transcription if you take quotes from this article.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\nAEW star Persephone on getting interest from WWE<\/h2>\n
