Appearing on the latest episode of the What’s Your Story?
podcast, WWE Superstar Paige recounted how she got in touch
back with WWE and what the demands were for her to sign
back.
Paige told Stephanie McMahon that it was Jelly Roll who
kicked things into motion after she appeared on his wife’s
podcast. The Rock’s agent, Brad Slater, also happened to be
there and the Grammy Award winning artist asked why WWE
didn’t bring her back yet. Slater promised to set up a
meeting with Nick Khan.
Paige said that he called Khan and got her a meeting with
him for the week after in Los Angeles.
She said that in the 10-minute meeting, Khan said that WWE
has two things that need to be clear: her neck needs to be
evaluated and cleared by WWE medical and she has to undergo
a drug test.
“I was like, ‘Hey, I can control the drug test.’ I’m clean
as a whistle,” she told McMahon. “And so I was like, ‘I
don’t know how my neck’s been. It’s been a few years since I
got it checked. The last time I got it checked…it was
perfect. So I’m not really concerned about it!’ And so the
next week I fly to Birmingham.”
Paige added that after she got the all clear, the two sides
entered in contract negotiations and got it signed in time
for WrestleMania.
