MARIA KANELLIS ANNOUNCES AEW CONTRACT EXPIRING AT END OF MONTH, HEALTH UPDATE

Maria Kanellis-Bennett announced that her AEW deal expires at the end of the month and that she'll be lining up her surgery plans shortly:

Kanellis stated, "Hello. It's been a little bit since I've checked in. We're getting close to my surgery and we're within 20 days of it at this point. This week I have an ultrasound. I have genetic testing and I also am meeting with my surgeon to make a plan and hopefully start discussing what's going on.  What time of day we'll be doing the surgery and if we're going through the front or through the back. I'm trying to not focus too much on that and also my contract with AEW is coming up October 31st. I've reached out to them to find out whether or not they are going to be signing me, but I don't know. I haven't really heard anything yet. So of course that is weighing on me as well. But because It's that time of year where it's spooky season. I'm trying to focus on that. I so I have this stick here  and today i'm going to work on some outdoor halloween decorations because the rest of it I can't control right now.  I can't control AEW. I can't control this surgery. But what I can do is make some wonderful memories for my kids. So today, that is going to be my focus, is making my kids happy. Peace, friends."

Kanellis announced over the summer that doctors had found a growth on her adrenal gland. She announced today she would be taking independent bookings starting in December:
