Paige is back!!
The former two-time Divas Champion and inaugural NXT Women’s Champion made her return to WWE at Saturday’s WrestleMania 42 event. This was her first match in WWE for eight years and her first time back in the company since 2022.
The WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles were on the line in a Fatal Four-way on Saturday. The champions, The Irresistible Forces (Lash Legend & Nia Jax) defended against Lyra Valkyria & Bayley, Charlotte Flair & Alexa Bliss and who was supposed to be The Bella Twins.
Nikki Bella joined Brie on the stage, and holding back tears, had to give the news that with her ankle injury, she wasn’t cleared. However, she announced Paige as her replacement.
The match came down to Paige pinning Alexa Bliss after delivering Rampaige.
A highlight of the match was a moment of one-on-one between Flair and Paige.
In 2022, Paige wasn’t able to get cleared herself to return to the ring by WWE due to her prior neck injuries. She returned to the ring under her real name, Saraya, in AEW for three years. There she won the AEW Women’s World Title.
Early reports have said that Paige is signed with the company to a multi year deal.
