There are a lot of couples in professional wrestling who are working for the same wrestling promotion. Some of the most notable names are from WWE Charlotte Flair and Andrade El Idolo, Miro and Lana in AEW, and many more. One of those couples is also John Morrison, alias Johnny TV, and Taya Valkyrie.
The couple recently had their special romantic comedy series, Johnny Loves Taya, released on AEW’s YouTube channel. While speaking on the Lightweights Podcast, La Wera Loca opened up about the show. Taya Valkyrie revealed it is a fully scripted show and her real-life friends are in it.
“We have our new show coming out real quick called ‘Johnny Loves Taya.’ So, Johnny Loves Taya is pro wrestling’s first scripted, fully scripted romantic comedy series. That is going to be living on the AEW YouTube channel. We are very very proud of it,” Taya Valkyrie explained. “Think of Modern Family meets I Love Lucy. It’s like a short episode about things that happen to us in our lives and our friends are part of it.
“Phoenix, who’s been one of my best friends for like over ten years, he is part of it. I have my friend Laura in it. I’m trying to think. Holly is in it. My friend Josh. Like it’s just these real people in our lives that are all part of the show with us. And it’s fully scripted. It was written and directed by Justin Donaldson who was part of Reno 911’s writing team. And Funny or Die. It’s just been really cool to produce something like this with John and Justin. And have AEW really believe in us and allow us to kind of make this crazy idea come to fruition,” Taya Valkyrie said.
