Maria Kanellis Is Back on WWE TV and Probably Leaving Mike Behind

Maria and Mike Kanellis interrupted Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins' interview to make clear they are the true power couple of WWE.

They tried to settle it in the ring, but when The Man tagged in, Maria refused to wrestle. She announced she was pregnant, and it wasn't Mike's baby before Mike tapped to the Dis-arm-her.

This should have been a moment to re-establish the Kanellis couple for the casual fans, who haven't seen them in months. Instead, WWE immediately embarrassed them, seemingly breaking up their marriage—at least on screen.

It was a bizarre moment that can be explained by noting who came out better. Most may not even know who Mike Kanellis is given his run in WWE has been so lackluster even including his more prominent time in 205 Live.

Maria is a recognizable face in WWE, though, and she came out of this as a memorable villain. It was as if Raw was quietly writing Mike out of Maria's story to make sure she had more to do.

Actually, that was almost certainly the intention here. While her husband can go back to wrestling on 205 Live, she will likely start working Raw.
