Dashwood took to Instagram to share a heartfelt video of the moment they found out they were going to become parents. Given the excitement of the couple, some of Dashwood’s language had to be censored.

In the caption to her post, Dashwood shared that there is much more to the story of the couple’s pregnancy but that will come out at a later date.

Baby Rallis coming 2025 ? This is the raw unedited version of us finding out the amazing news. Unedited other than the beeps over my language… my apologies ? Could you tell how nervous I was to look? I didn’t even answer Mike’s questions! In fact, there’s more to this story that I’ll explain at a later date. For now we wanted to share our news and how over the moon we are to be parents and welcome our little one into the world ??

Pro Wrestling’s Baby Fever

Dashwood and Rallis aren’t the only wrestlers who’ll be changing diapers and warming up bottles soon enough. During an April edition of AEW Rampage, Ruby Soho revealed that she is pregnant and celebrated in the ring with her now-husband Angelo Parker. Days later, fellow Riott Squad alum Valhalla shared that she and Viking Raider Erik are also expecting their second child.

At San Diego Comic-Con, former WWE RAW & SmackDown Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey shared that she is expecting her second child and revealed her baby bump at the convention. Rousey and her husband Travis Browne welcomed their daughter La’akea into the world in September 2021.

Tenille Dashwood Is Disappointed With Her Last WWE Run

WWE decided to make roster cuts in September 2023. Some notable names were on that list, and not all of them were happy about their run with the company.

While speaking to Chris Van Vliet’s Insight podcast, Tenille Dashwood was rather candid about the fact that she wasn’t happy about her last WWE run. It ended suddenly, and she didn’t get to do nearly as much.

Tenille Dashwood Speaks on her WWE Exit

On September 21, 2023, WWE made the decision to release several talents from their roster, among them Tenille Dashwood, also known as Emma, and her husband Mike Rallis, who wrestled under the name Riddick Moss. Despite being featured as an on-screen couple, their appearances on television were limited, with a notable exception being a brief storyline involving a feud with Karrion Kross and Scarlett.

Interestingly, the day of their release coincided with WWE’s announcement of the Elimination Chamber event in Australia, a development that Dashwood had eagerly anticipated and was actively promoting. However, her excitement quickly turned to dismay when she discovered just hours later that she had been let go by the company.

While thinking back on the emotions of that sad day, Dashwood shared that she was actually disappointed by the way that latest run with WWE turned out. She recounted how the news of the upcoming event in her home country had been a long-held aspiration during her time with WWE, and she had persistently inquired about the possibility of participating in tours there.

Despite facing challenges due to travel restrictions in previous years, Dashwood remained hopeful for the opportunity to wrestle in Australia. The sudden announcement on social media caught her off guard, as she had not received any prior indication from WWE about her involvement. As the day progressed and reports of releases circulated, Dashwood and her husband found themselves anticipating the inevitable, ultimately receiving the news they had feared.

“I will say, I was a little disappointed with that last run, and a little upset with how things went. I do think I have a lot more to contribute and I had very high hopes when I returned, it just didn’t turn out the way that I would have liked. In saying that, we did see it as a positive, we just weren’t being used, so it was, ‘Okay, let’s go do the things we want.’ That has been very exciting. At this point, we’re focusing on that. We do have a tour in Australia that we’ve committed to. Some autograph signings and a match. Past that, we’re focusing on other things right now. I can’t imagine ever fully stepping away from wrestling. It’s been my dream since I was a little girl and it’s the only thing I really wanted to do. I’m so glad I’ve gone after it and had the career that I’ve had. It would be hard for me to say, ‘I’m done with wrestling.’ In that same instance, I’m not actively pursuing anything or don’t have a plan moving forward at this point.”

What’s Next for Tenille Dashwood

Dashwood was released from WWE the first time in 2017, but then she was brought back in 2022. Sadly, that last run wasn’t as long.

It’s not all sad news for Tenille and Mike. On March 8, Dashwood and Rallis tied the knot in Hawaii. Their wedding was a very happy day, and they owe their relationship to WWE, because they met while with the company.

SEScoops will have more on this story, and so much more, if more updates are available. Keep checking back for more headlines on the stories you need.

Emma and Madcap Moss Married

Former WWE Superstar Emma was released by WWE in September 2023, a move that surprised some fans, but they were largely absent from television prior to that. Her fiancé Riddick Moss also departed from WWE. Recently, it seems the couple has gotten married.

According to People, Tenille Dashwood and her longtime boyfriend, Mike Rallis, got married in a beautiful mountainside ceremony at Kualoa Ranch in Hawaii. The outlet also had exclusive photos of the nuptials.

The location held significance as it symbolically connected Melbourne, Australia, and Minnesota, the places where Dashwood and Rallis are from.

Ahead of their wedding, Dashwood expressed her anticipation for what she believes will be an extraordinary wedding, emphasizing that the primary focus is on creating a joyous atmosphere. “There’s no doubt it’s going to be an epic wedding, but the most important thing is it’s going to be so much fun,” she stated. “We want a celebration where our family and friends can enjoy themselves and have a great time.”

Recent WWE Releases About To Explode The Pro Wrestling Free Agent Market

In September, WWE released several talents, and that came as a big surprise. WWE fired over 100 people from their corporate headquarters, right after the TKO Group Holdings deal closed, and then they axed several members of their roster.

The NXT Superstars who were fired during that list of releases has already seen their non-compete clauses run out. NXT Superstars only have a 30-day wait, but main roster talent must wait even longer.

Although WWE released all of those Superstars at once, they saved Matt Riddle on his own the next day. He had a laundry list of infractions, personal drama, and other backstage controversies with WWE; so, he burned his last bridges and nobody could protect him from a release this time around. The Original Bro will be among those names that will enter the free agent market this week.

As of next week, around December 21st, those released WWE Superstars will be officially free agents. Their 90-day non-compete clauses are going to expire, leaving a lot of possibilities in the pro wrestling world. 

Those former WWE Superstars will officially become free agents, granting them the freedom to work with any organization. The list of wrestlers includes Mustafa Ali, Aliyah, Shelton Benjamin, Rick Boogs, Emma, Dana Brooke, Dabbo-Kato, Elias, Quincy Elliot, Mace, Mansoor, Riddick Moss, Matt Riddle, Shanky, Top Dolla, and Dolph Ziggler.

We previously reported that Dolph Ziggler already has a pro wrestling gig announced. Odds are, his schedule will be as busy as he wants it to be. 

AEW is also always a part of the conversation whenever non-compete clauses start to expire. It stands to reason that Bryan Danielson would pull to have Tony Khan sign Mustafa Ali, someone he also pulled to work with during his final run in WWE.

We will have to see where all of those former WWE Superstars appear next. It could result in some big headlines in the not too distant future.

Note On Riddick Moss’ Return On SmackDown

This Friday’s episode of SmackDown saw the return of Riddick Moss. He helped Happy Corbin in attacking the former Universal champion, Kevin Owens.

Prior to his appearance on WWE programming this week, the former NXT star had not been seen on WWE TV for a while. His last on-screen appearance had come during the October 1, 2020 episode of Main Event.

Regarding his surprise return to the blue branded show this week, Fightful Select mentioned how Moss never made an appearance after last year’s WWE Draft.

Since there is another Draft taking place in a few days, the officials felt that there was ‘no harm’ in the former 24/7 champion joining forces with Corbin.

Riddick Moss wrestled with an ACL Injury for some time last year. The report also noted that a WWE official said that they were ‘shocked and impressed’ with it due to the nature of his injury.

The former NXT star is a homegrown talent for WWE who had not made any wrestling appearance before his NXT debut back in December 2014.

Moss was called up to the main roster in January 2020 where he accompanied Mojo Rawley. Riddick had been out of action since October last year due to a torn ACL.

Riddick Moss Confirms He’s Been Working With A Torn ACL

WWE Supestar Riddick Moss has been working with a torn ACL for the past two months. He made the surprise revelation in a social media post on Tuesday morning.

Moss has not let the injury keep him off television. In fact, he’s gone undefeated on Raw Underground and on Main Event.

He touts his “elite power, speed, agility, and explosion” and says he’s squatted 500 pounds, deadlifted 600 pounds, and broad jumped over 10’ during his recovery

“When you have such high expectations for yourself, it’s hard to exceed them,” wrote Moss. “But damn… even I was impressed with Riddy Mo on this one. 100% real talk, I don’t know of anyone else who could’ve done all of this. I am everything I’ve said I am – best athlete in the industry, Baddest MoFo on the Show, and a true Outlier.”

He continued, “It speaks to my unmatched training, world-class athleticism, and extraordinary toughness. In other words, it’s a testament to the Riddick Regimen. And if you didn’t already believe in the Regimen, just wait til you see THIS comeback.”

We’d like to take this opportunity to wish Riddick Moss a speedy recovery.

Riddick Moss Was Reportedly In Line For A Major Push Before COVID-19

WWE Superstar Riddick Moss was allegedly in line for a significant push in the company prior to the coronavirus pandemic.

When the pandemic hit, Moss was the WWE 24/7 Champion. However, with the pandemic risk, Moss wanted to protect his brother who has cystic fibrosis. Because of this, Moss wanted to shield as much as possible to help protect his brother from possibly contracting COVID-19.

WWE was reportedly respectful of his request. Moss subsequently dropped the belt to R-Truth on the 3/22 episode of Monday Night RAW.

According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select, Paul Heyman did all he could to avoid Moss receiving any potential heat for his decision. It was reported that “Heyman was very high on Moss at the time and a big push was in order.”

Despite having been absent from WWE programming until recently, Moss’s decision allegedly hasn’t scuppered any long-term plans WWE has for him. Additionally, WWE officials are still said to see great potential in him.

Riddick Moss recently returned to television on the 8/10 episode of RAW. He participated in a RAW Underground segment, defeating Cal Bloom via knockout. On this week’s episode of RAW, he faced off against Arturo Ruas. Their bout would end after both men had to defend themselves from crowd members.

It is unknown if Moss will continue to participate in RAW Underground segments at the time of writing or if WWE will soon involve him with a new storyline or feud.
