Paige returns to WWE at WrestleMania 42

Former WWE Divas Champion Paige (aka Saraya) has finally returned to the Stamford-based promotion at WrestleMania 42. She was in action on the show.

Nikki Bella & Brie Bella were supposed to team up to lock horns with Charlotte Flair & Alexa Bliss, Nia Jax & Lash Legend, and Bayley & Lyra Valkyria in a Fatal Four-Way Tag Team Match for the Women’s Tag Team Championship at WrestleMania 42. However, before the show, Nikki suffered an unfortunate ankle injury. Several reports suggested that The Kabuki Warriors ( Asuka & Kairi Sane) would replace The Bella Twins in this match.

However, according to new reports, Paige (aka Saraya) had finally signed a contract with WWE and was expected to show up at WrestleMania 42. It was also mentioned that the former Divas Champion would most likely replace Nikki to team up with Brie in the Women’s Tag Team Championship match.

On tonight’s show, Nikki Bella came out with Brie to say that she tried her best to recover in time for ‘Mania, but unfortunately, she couldn’t. She added that she didn’t want to ruin Brie’s WrestleMania moment because of her injury, so she called an old friend. As it turns out, this “old friend” was none other than Paige.

Check out a clip of her return in the post below:

Saraya had been heavily rumored to join the Stamford-based promotion since she left All Elite Wrestling last year. Many expected her to show up at this year’s WWE Women’s Royal Rumble Match, but that did not happen. However, despite no confirmation on her return, fans didn’t lose hope for her return at The Biggest Stage of Them All.

Now that The Bella Twins and AJ Lee are back in WWE. This was the right time for Paige to return, as they could put on some great matches together, just like they did earlier in their careers. It will be interesting to see what the Triple H-led creative team has planned for Saraya’s future.
