    Paige here! Or actually, call her Saraya now. The one time Divas Champion is out of WWE and is testing the waters as a free agent … and maybe her neck? TBD on that front, but in the meantime, we’re talking Twitch, NXT under Bill DeMott, why she changed finishers and her battle with addiction.

    In a world of Bill DeMotts be a Dusty Rhodes. I've watched Saraya's journey and especially when those tapes were leaked she got more hate than the others who were in them. They worked it into a storyline in WWE which was horrible. Knowing that she was pretty much suicidal how did they think that was acceptable? I watched Fighting With My Family loads of times. It's so good to see. I'm so happy Saraya is doing well now. She's got a lot more to give.

    I have the feeling that these two will probably be back in WWE at some point. It could be 6 months, one year, two years...but the new McMahon-Helmsley regime.will do everything in their power to have them back. And they won't be the only ones either. Renee said here that Hunter will bring everyone back one by one. Obviously there will be a few who won't make it, but they can go to AEW and AEW will pick up more people from NWA and Impact too. This is the best moment for wrestling fans in over a decade.
