The 33-year-old Paige, who is a former Divas Champion, made her way back to WrestleMania 42 so that she could win the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship along with Brie Bella. During her conversation with Stephanie McMahon on her podcast, where prominent personalities from the fields of entertainment, sports, and business come to share their stories, she discussed her plans to participate and be a part of major league matches like the Elimination Chamber, the Royal Rumble, and other big matches.
With a successful career so far, Paige, who turned out to be the youngest Diva Champion in WWE history, has a net worth of $3 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. As per reports, Paige became the Diva Champion when she was just 21. She has also won the NXT Women’s Championship.
As Paige won multiple wrestling titles at such a young age, her life story became the inspiration behind British filmmaker Stephen Merchant’s biographical-drama film Fighting with My Family, starring Oscar-nominated actress Florence Pugh, Vince Vaughn, and Lena Headey.
Paige shares what’s on her mind after returning to WWE
As cited by 411Mania, during her conversation with Stephanie McMahon, Paige opened up and discussed what’s on her mind after her return to WrestleMania 42. She said:
“I came in this time with a mindset where I just want to be happy and have fun. Because I don’t think I’m going to be wrestling after this run, you know? I want to just enjoy my time that I have here, embrace absolutely everything, just enjoy the journey. That’s all I care about.”
While discussing what her plans are after returning to WWE, and what she wants. Paige said:
“I do want to finally be able to be in the Royal Rumble that I got to not be a part of. And do the Elimination Chambers and do, you know, all these stipulation matches that were not around.”
Paige also talked about getting the opportunity to be a part of the Royal Rumble. She continued:
“I had to be backstage in Gorilla when the Royal Rumble just started, and no one knew I was retired by that point, you know? And so I just sat there and I was just really sad. It was bittersweet. I was happy that the girls finally got this big match that we didn’t have before. But I was sad because I wasn’t a part of it, and I didn’t know if I was ever going to be a part of it again.”
Paige further added:
“And so to have this moment where I’m back in WWE, my neck is good, I’m wrestling again. And there’s opportunities for me to be a part of these stipulation matches. I mean man, I’m really excited. I’m really excited for the next couple of years.”
