Paige returned to WWE after an three-year absence at
WrestleMania 42 Saturday, coming out as the surprise tag
team partner of Brie Bella, replacing the injured Nikki
Bella.
The Bellas had their entrance last and Nikki had a mic in
her hand and a crutch on the other, explaining that she’s
unable to compete due to her ankle injury. She said that she
wasn’t going to ruin her sister’s WrestleMania moment and
called in an old friend to replace her.
Paige’s old entrance theme kicked in and the British star
came out to a massive pop from the Vegas crowd who were
uncharacteristically quiet throughout the whole evening.
Paige, who last wrestled in a WWE ring in December 2017,
even picked up the victory for her team, hitting the Rampage
on Alexa Bliss to win the titles.
Paige also won the WWE Divas title in her main roster debut
on the Raw After Mania in April 2014, beating AJ Lee.
Just minutes before the match started, Mercedes Mone wrote
on X, “I’ll always be here to support you” in reference to
Paige.
