Paige On Her Return at WrestleMania 42: ‘I’m a WWE Girl Forever’

Paige reacts to her WWE return. The English professional wrestler returned to a massive pop from the audience at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas at WrestleMania 42 Saturday. She replaced the injured Nikki Bella, joining Brie Bella in the Fatal Four-Way Women’s Tag Team Championship match.

Paige’s return proved to be memorable, as she pinned Alexa Bliss after Nikki took out Charlotte Flair with her crutch to secure the Women’s Tag Team Championship for herself and Brie.

At the WrestleMania 42 Night One Post-Show, Paige reacted to her return to WWE after four years. This was her first match in the company since suffering a career-threatening injury in December 2017. She described the reaction to her return as “surreal” and called WWE her home, claiming that the goal was always to return.

Below are the highlights:

Paige on her WWE return, and if that was always the plan

“Oh my gosh! It’s good to be home. About time! 100 percent (on whether she ever thought of returning), WWE is my home. I was raised here. I’m a WWE girl forever and a Total Diva.”

On what was going through her mind during her entrance

“I mean, I didn’t know how anyone was going to react. I’m walking out there; I forgot how big WrestleManias were. So walking out there, I was like, ‘Oh my God, I can’t see the end of everybody.’ It was magical; it was surreal. I forgot how to skip at one point; I was like, ‘What do I do? What did Paige do?'”
