The "Ravishing Russian" seems like the perfect candidate for somebody that will move on from WWE when the time is right. She's not somebody that got into wrestling because she necessarily loved it growing up or had a lifelong dream of being in the business. She did it because it was the right fit at the time. Her real name is CJ Perry and when you check out her IMDB Profile you can see she's got a lot of acting credits to her name that have nothing to do with wrestling. It's been reported that WWE Chairman Vince McMahon is really impressed by her, sees a lot of potential in her and wants to put her in a more featured role. Even if she is training to wrestle, will she be good enough to where they can push her? That may never happen. Perhaps she can fit in a role as a GM of a show if she's not paired with Rusev in the long term. Prior to WrestleMania, she filmed a WWE Films movie along with Edge called Interrogation, so it shows that WWE thinks highly of her if they put a relatively new diva in a movie before some of the others on the roster that are more experienced. People will see that and realize she's capable of pulling off other roles instead of the evil Russian lady. The guess here is that Hollywood takes notice of the blonde beauty who is capable of making a character like Lana look easy and it leads to some major movie roles within the next few years. Lana's a star. We can all see it. Hollywood will see it too.
