One of the new faces on Season 6 of Total Divas is Lana aka the Ravishing Russian. She was born in the US as Catherine Joy “CJ” Perry but was raised in Latvia. When she was 17 she returned to the U.S. as a professional dancer. After graduating from college (Florida State University), in 2013, she signed with the WWE and was paired with Alexander Rusev aka The Bulgarian Brut. In 2015, Rusev proposed.
On Total Divas, WWE fans get to see CJ and Rusev clash in real life while they plan their wedding(s). The first wedding is in Malibu and has a circus theme (elephants, a Ferris wheels, stilt walkers). The second is held in Bulgaria where Rusev is from. (He is the first Bulgarian to have wrestled for WWE.) He and Lana currently live in Nashville, Tennessee. Total Divas airs Wednesdays at 8pm on E!
