Former WWE star Maria Kanellis returning to ROH

Just a month after Mike Benett returned to ROH, his wife and fellow former WWE star Maria Kanellis is joining him in the promotion.

Ring of Honor has announced that she will be making her return in January. She worked for ROH from 2011 until 2015. The announcement came via The Experience, which is a Facebook group.

Back in April due to budget cuts related to the COVID-19 pandemic, Bennett and Maria were released by WWE.

“Ring of Honor has cultivated an environment where the wrestlers and the fans are the experience,” Kanellis-Bennett said. “I want wrestlers to thrive and I want to give you the fans what you truly desire. I want Ring of Honor to be yours. No … I want Ring of Honor to be ours.”

Bennett reunited with Matt Taven in ROH as they were past members of The Kingdom in November. At Friday’s Final Battle PPV event, Taven and Bennett beat Vincent and Bateman.
