Maria Kanellis Says There Were People Really Pulling For The Kingdom To Sign With AEW

Maria Kanellis and the rest of The Kingdom made their AEW debut in October of last year, and have been regulars on Ring Of Honor programming as of late.

While appearing on the latest episode of AEW’s Unrestricted podcast, Kanellis-Bennett noted that AEW was always the goal for The Kingdom and noted that several talent were pulling for them to sign with the promotion.

“The goal was to always go to AEW as soon as the opportunity arose, and it did. I won’t give you too many specifics, but I will say that there were a couple of people that were really pulling for us, people who are what it means to be veterans in a locker room and they are what it means to fight for those guys that fought for you. To have that as your coming in, [it] felt so good.”

We will have to wait and see what comes next for The Kingdom in AEW but for now they will remain on Ring Of Honor TV.
