On this week’s episode of MSL & Sullivan, available on MLWradio.com, former ROH & EVOLVE commentator Mister Saint
Laurent and former WCW matchmaker Kevin Sullivan discussed the romantic relationship between Alberto Del Rio and
Paige. WWE has gone to great lengths to split up the couple and MSL revealed some of the previously undisclosed details:

“Mark Carano, who fans might know from Total Divas, kind of like the office liaison guy, approached Del Rio and Paige
individually and harassed each of them about their relationship. It was indicated that the office wanted them to sever their
romantic relationship.”

MSL also said that WWE threatened Paige:

“A lot of people speculated if this was the reason [WWE] split them up in the draft and that’s definitely what happened.
The company did not want them together. They split them up in the draft by design and they threatened to fire Paige if
she didn’t break up with Del Rio.”
