AEW star Big Bill married over the weekend after almost two years of being engaged to his partner. But who did the former WWE Superstar marry? Here are all the details.
The man formerly known as Big Cass married his long-time girlfriend Lexy Nair. She also works as a backstage interviewer for All Elite Wrestling and occasionally appears on ROH. Despite not wrestling, she is an honorary member of Athena's minions.
The pair began dating in April 2021 and got engaged on December 24, 2022. Both are actively on-screen in AEW and have appeared in the same segments several times.
Last year, when Big Bill was teaming up with Ricky Starks, they'd have interviews with his fiancée. Starks noticed they were glancing towards each other but could never pinpoint what the deal was. He later found out that they had been dating all along.

Big Bill reveals he almost didn't sign with AEW
Big Bill has been with AEW since 2022 and has found great success so far. He started as a member of The Firm before teaming up with Ricky Starks. They would go on to become AEW World Tag Team Champions for around four months. He then eventually moved on to being a member of Chris Jericho's Learning Tree as "The Redwood."
During his appearance last month on Talk is Jericho, he revealed that he was on a handshake deal with TNA and wanted a contract. When they told him they did not want to pay him that much, he waited for his chance, and then came the call from AEW.
"Per show. For a certain amount of time, I couldn’t do certain other promotions. That ran out. Then I was on a handshake deal. I had started hearing that maybe there was interest other places. I asked them for a contract, they were like, ‘Ah, we don’t want to pay that much.’ I totally understand that. That’s what I thought I could get elsewhere. I worked on a handshake deal with them, and then the opportunity came with AEW," Big Bill said.
Despite being with Jericho, who isn't popular among the fans, he remains surprisingly well-liked by the crowd. His match against Hook on Collision in Cardiff was clear proof of this.
