<p>WWE Superstars and real-life married couple <strong>Mike</strong> and <strong>Maria Kanellis</strong> are re-signing with WWE.</p>



<p>The Kanellis’ contracts were supposed to be up this week and there was some talk that they would not be re-signing and instead were looking elsewhere – like AEW.</p>



<p>However, according to <a href="https://www.prowrestlingsheet.com/mike-maria-kanellis-re-sign-wwe/#.XQYFA9IzbIU" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label=" (opens in a new tab)">a report in Pro Wrestling Sheet</a>, the two have just agreed to a multi-year deal with WWE. According to their sources the couple is very happy with the final offers that the WWE made to get them to re-sign.</p>

<p>The couple originally signed with the WWE in 2017. Last
month, Maria fueled speculation that the duo were looking to take their talent
elsewhere when she Tweeted that their contracts would be up in three weeks.</p>

<p>She then tried to turn the talks into a joke when she
tweeted back at a fan that the contracts she was actually talking about were
gym memberships.</p>

<p>Despite Maria not mentioning that it was their WWE contracts that were up, many took it as a sign of the couples rumored unhappiness in the WWE.</p>


<p>[adace-ad id=&#8221;3395&#8243;]</p>



<p>It had been reported, back in January this year, that the couple had requested to be released. Maria took to Instagram to deny the reports after getting phone calls and emails about the news. According to her, someone had been “playing all the wrestling news sites.”</p>

I DID NOT ask for my release. Speculation and rumors are running rampant. Someone is playing all the wrestling news sites. It’s a game. I’ve been in professional wrestling for 15 years and what I do in front of the camera will only be a small part of the full story. I have relationships with fans, talent, producers, and their families. I have been in the hospital when people have been injured and backstage to hug someone that just had a great match. I don’t need to stir up shit. I don’t need to put others down. I am an imperfect human that has learned from past mistakes. Whoever is leaking rumors I pity you. And your desperate attempt for attention while disparaging my husband and I. I’m gonna take the weekend off of social media to hang out with my beautiful family and I suggest whoever it is does the same. Social media is not fact. It is fantasy, a nightmare, or a place for bullies. I want to use this for motivation to be positive everyday. I am still learning how to be a mom. I still fight postpartum depression. And I still try and become a better person everyday. I don’t need this made up extra stress. I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and thank you for your support!!</a></p> <p style=" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px; margin-bottom:0; margin-top:8px; overflow:hidden; padding:8px 0 7px; text-align:center; text-overflow:ellipsis; white-space:nowrap;">A post shared by <a href="https://www.instagram.com/mariakanellis/" style=" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; font-style:normal; font-weight:normal; line-height:17px;" target="_blank"> Maria Kanellis-Bennett</a> (@mariakanellis) on <time style=" font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px;" datetime="2019-01-18T20:46:40+00:00">Jan 18, 2019 at 12:46pm PST</time></p></div></blockquote><script async src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script>

<p>The Kanellis’ originally debuted on SmackDown Live, with Mike being the in ring talent and Maria mostly taking a managerial roll. Maria got pregnant soon afterwards and Mike was injured so despite a hyped debut, the couple didn’t really get a chance to do much. They were then moved to Raw but mostly showed up on Main Event before becoming part of 205 Live last October.</p>
