A Look Back at CJ Perry's Brief, but Spectacular AEW Tenure
I've been a huge fan of CJ Perry ever since she first appeared in WWE under her familiar name, Lana. Hard to believe that her wrestling career has lasted for over a decade, it doesn't seem like it's been that long.

Put the f****** phone down
One of the most alarming things about having premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) is that it can make you feel like a completely different person for two weeks out of the month. During the follicular phase, I am a mostly normal, responsible citizen who makes good choices. However, during luteal, I can turn into a hedonistic, impulsive demon that loves nothing more than to tank all of my personal progress.
