Paige will return to WWE at WrestleMania 42, after a nine-year hiatus since her last match for the company in 2017. Despite this, her departure only took place in 2022.
Paige has signed a multi-year contract with WWE, with a strong chance of replacing Nikki Bella in the Fatal 4-Way Match for the Women’s Tag Team Championship.
However, on a recent episode of The Nikki & Brie Show, Nikki stated that she will do everything and more to wrestle next Saturday in the title match.
“I’ll have to keep wearing the orthopedic boot and rest my foot so everything will be okay for tomorrow.”
Clearly, there is great optimism on the part of the wrestler and WWE itself regarding her recovery for April 18.
Previously, the possibility of Asuka and Kairi Sane replacing the Bella Twins in the event of Nikki’s absence had been considered, but with Paige’s likely signing, revealed by Bodyslam.net, that idea was completely discarded.
It is worth remembering that, in addition to the Bella Twins and Lash Legend and Nia Jax, the current champions, Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair, and Bayley and Lyra Valkyria will compete in this match.
