After making her return to independent wrestling and debuting under her Mercedes Monè gimmick at NJPW’s Wrestle Kingdom 17, AEW fans patiently waited for the performer formerly known as Sasha Banks in WWE to make her long-awaited return to American television on the January 11 edition of Dynamite. On paper, the idea was pretty self-explanatory; […]

It’s (almost) here, it’s (almost) here; after weeks of anticipation, fans of AEW will finally find out whether or not Saraya, the former two-time WWE Divas Champion, is able to pull some Monè out of her hat and bank on adding another marketable star to the women’s division. While the excitement surrounding the match has […]

Folks, it’s official: Mercedes Moné is not going to be Saraya’s tag team partner when AEW takes Dynamite to the “Fabulous” Kia Forum in Los Angeles for a tag match with current AEW Women’s World Champion Jamie Hayter and former AEW Women’s World Champion Britt Baker. I know, Moné made her surprise NJPW debut at […]

It’s officially 2023, which means one thing and one thing only: AEW fans will soon find out the identity of Saraya’s mystery partner for the January 11th edition of AEW Dynamite. That’s right, soon fans will see if Sasha Banks will be back in a professional wrestling ring, learn what moniker she’ll be using moving […]

Back in September, Saraya was the hottest name in female professional wrestling, maybe professional wrestling, period. After suffering a broken neck that was initially classified as career-ending and then spending the next half-decade on the shelf as a result, the performer formerly known as Paige was back, in an AEW ring no less, and was […]

As crazy as it may sound, Saraya has only been a member of AEW since September, when the former WWE Superstar made her surprise debut at Night 1 of Grand Slam. Since then, she’s helped book a lumberjack match, put over stars like Willow Nightengale, and began a war of words with Britt Baker that […]

A lot has happened since the last time Saraya wrested a professional wrestling match; America has a new president, England has a new Monarch, and cryptocurrency went from a one-liner in the movie Dope, to something worthy of Super Bowls ads, to, well, sort of useless once more. The last time Saraya wrestled, she was […]

“It’s so progressive for our division,” Britt Baker said of her forthcoming match with Saraya at AEW Full Gear. “It’s a story-driven match. It’s a very compelling story, and the match is going to be even more exciting. She’s been out of the game for five years. That’s a long time. For all our differences, […]

Folk’s it’s official: Saraya is in AEW, and she’s looking to wrestle. That’s right, after Britt Baker no-showed her appearance on a joint interview with the newest member of the AEW commentary team, Renee Paquette, the duo finally met in the ring on AEW Dynamite to air out their grievances before the promotion’s final Pay-Per-View […]

Though Saraya has barely been in AEW for a month, the hype around her addition has continued to grow since Grand Slam. Fans want to see the performer formerly known as Paige in a right proper match, presumably against her fast rival Britt Baker, and even if she remains a “manager” who oversees the woman’s […]

When Saraya returned to professional wrestling at AEW Grand Slam, it felt like an inflection point in the professional wrestling world. One of the most popular wrestlers of the last generation who played a big part in ushering in the Women’s Revolution to WWE, the wrestler originally known as Britani Knight who then performed as […]

What is the status of Saraya in AEW? Sure, she’s reportedly signed to a long-term deal and will be a fixture of AEW television for the foreseeable future, but is her presence going to be in a sort of “general manager” way, or will the former Paige be mixing it up in the ring like […]

“I’m back!” – with these two words, Saraya reintroduced herself to the professional wrestling world, and officially spoke on her position in the AEW Galaxy. That’s right, after making her surprise debut on the first night of Grand Slam to a massive pop from the assembled crowd and a ner-universally glowing response from fans online, […]

After a half-decade away from the ring, Saraya, who was known as Paige in WWE, has returned to the professional wrestling world as a member of AEW. Though her exact role in the promotion is rather unclear, as some have suggested that she was not cleared to wrestle very recently, Saraya has shot those reports […]

Just when it looked like Tony Khan was happy with the performers he already had under contract, the AEW founder pulled a rabbit out of his hat and changed the landscape of the promotion forever with the addition of Saraya, aka the wrestler formerly known as WWE’s Paige. That’s right, though Saraya officially retired the […]

When Saraya, the performer formerly known in the WWE Universe as Paige, fired off the following quote Tweet about a month ago, it set the wrestling world, from AEW down to her family’s World Association of Wrestling, ablaze. https://twitter.com/RealPaigeWWE/status/1486032672044593152?s=20&t=EWz67uZcBUaILYz6SyYsEA Yeah, there’s no way that would be misconstrued by the *checks notes* 4.6 thousand people who […]

Thursday, July 7th, 2022 is the final day of Paige. No, not because anything has happened to the performer born Saraya-Jade Bevis, who at just 29 has plenty of life to live, but because Paige, the character trademarked and owned by the WWE, will officially go into storage indefinitely – unless they pull a Fake […]
