Paige Drops Affiliation With Blackcraft Spirits
According to a tweet by Paige on Wednesday morning, the currently suspended WWE female wrestler no longer is affiliated with Blackcraft Spirits, an alcohol company whose list of owners includes Rosa Mendes' fiancee, Bobby Schubenzki.
Paige was promoting the company earlier this year, mentioning it specifically during an interview with Renee Young on the "Unfiltered" show that airs on the WWE Network and implying she was a partner with Schubenzki in the company. Blackcraft even named a drink after Paige.
Schubenzki sent out this tweet Tuesday night, which has fueled speculation that it is about Paige and this apparent professional parting of the ways:
Paige currently is serving a 60-day suspension from WWE, after violating the company wellness policy for the second time. Since being suspended, she got engaged to her boyfriend, former WWE wrestler Alberto Del Rio, when she proposed to Del Rio in the ring during the WWC Aniversario event in Puerto Rico. Paige's father and brother have posted negative comments on social media since the engagement.
As for Mendes, she is still under WWE contract, but hasn't appeared on television in more than a year. She announced her pregnancy last summer and gave birth in February.
