Paige Wwe is back in the spotlight after reports surfaced that Saraya has signed to return to WWE and is expected to step back into the ring this weekend at WrestleMania 42. The development centers on a possible late change to WWE’s Women’s Tag Team Championship Fatal Four Way. The key reason is Nikki Bella’s ankle injury, which has kept her from being cleared for the match.
What the report says about Paige Wwe
Mike Johnson of PWInsider said Saraya Jade-Bevis, known as Paige during her original WWE run, has signed to return as a wrestler for World Wrestling Entertainment. He said she is expected to be part of Saturday’s WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship Fatal Four Way, replacing Nikki Bella if the change goes through. The report adds that Paige was hidden in Las Vegas and was seen during a run-through for the match earlier this week.
Nikki Bella is still being advertised for the event, but her ankle injury has been referenced on television. The report says she has not been cleared to return from the injury suffered several weeks ago on Smackdown. That is the backdrop for why Paige Wwe has become the focus of so much attention in the final stretch before the event.
How the replacement angle developed
The Bellas, Nikki Bella and Brie Bella, are set to challenge for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles in the four-way match. The possible substitution would place Paige in a high-pressure spot, with the championship picture and the event’s momentum both hanging on the final decision. The report also notes that Paige has not wrestled in WWE since 2017, when a neck injury forced her to retire from in-ring competition.
Her path back has already included a return to wrestling after later being cleared in another company, and the latest report says she has not been in the ring since October 2024. For now, the most important detail is that Paige Wwe is being linked directly to a major match on a major weekend.
Immediate reaction and what it means next
The report is still being treated as a potential spoiler rather than a confirmed match card change, because WWE has not publicly announced the substitution in the context provided. Still, the combination of the injury, the run-through, and the Las Vegas note has made Paige Wwe the center of the conversation around WrestleMania 42.
Fightful said more information on Paige’s return will be provided when it is known. If the reported switch holds, the next update should settle whether Paige Wwe actually steps into the ring on Saturday and whether Nikki Bella’s advertised spot changes before bell time.
