SoCal Pro Wrestling ring announcer and backstage interviewer Arkady Aura has confirmed on social media, a report from Fightful Select that she has signed with AEW.
Fightful Select also notes Aura will serve as a backstage interviewer for AEW, sharing those duties with Renee Paquette and Lexy Nair.
Aura also has a background in music and theater.
“Not sure I can even put into words how I feel. I’ve cried a few times, screamed with joy and overall let myself burst with excitement the last few weeks.
If you’ve followed me awhile you’ll know I tend to chase a lot of dreams and pursue whatever path feels the most fulfilling to me. If you’re friends or family, you’ll know I question that in myself often and if I’m making the right choice. At this moment though, to sit and think every step I’ve taken, whether that was musical theater, pro wrestling, acting or Highland Games, every path has been intertwined and I know leads here for a reason.
To the handful of people who’ve believed in me every step of the way, ever since I got into a ring 7 years ago, and who’ve taken a chance on me now, I’m forever grateful.
To my love @simmons_strength, without you being the best father in the world, and your support in everything I’ve done, I wouldn’t be here and I know that for a fact. Thank you for everything, always.”
