"Conti is my husband’s last name. My husband is half-Italian and Conti is an Italian name and when I got married I didn’t change my name. I was like (for her wrestling name) 'why not because Taynara is my legal name, let’s try to put your (her husband) last name so it’s perfect' and they’re (WWE) were like 'ok let’s do it'. But then WWE found out about all the jokes or whatever, and they changed it. They took out Conti," she said.
The 26-year-old competed in WWE under her real name, Taynara. Following her departure from the company in April 2020, she changed her wrestling name to Tay Conti. Although she is still using Jorge's last name in AEW, the Brazilian wrestler recently revealed that she has split from her husband.
"we have been separated for a long time," she disclosed during a Q&A session on Instagram .
The former WWE Superstar is currently a regular competitor in AEW. She recently defeated Penelope Ford on the latest episode of Rampage.
