I met @RealPaigeWWE at an airport when she was 17 years old. I instantly felt a connection to her & knew she would be an absolute star. This is just the beginning for her. I’m really excited to see what the future holds ❤️
Oh here’s a picture of her beating me up 😆 pic.twitter.com/56SK9bzZ9n

The love, respect and admiration I have for this chick! It broke my heart to see you step away from the ring today, but ever since I first met you, your star has always shined so so bright. You have such a magnetic energy, and an entire exciting future ahead of you, I can’t wait to see where you channel it. The Joan Jett to my Blondie, @realpaigewwe you will always be one of the greatest that stepped into the ring and opened doors for so many women. Love you girl! 👩🏻🎤👩🏻🎤❤️❤️

3 years ago @mandysacs and I met @realpaigewwe as our judge on WWE Tough enough, a few months ago we debut with her on Monday night RAW as Absolution. Tonight we stood by her side for the last time as she retired due to injury.. Paige you have inspired us, taught us, and taken us under your wing. Not only were you our co worker but a friend and a sister to us 💜 Thank you Paige. #Paige
