Saraya (aka Paige) was the latest guest on Wrestling With Freddie, They discussed a number of topics and One of the topics discussed included Saraya addressing the online buzz surrounding her absence from the 2026 WWE Women’s Royal Rumble. The former AEW Women’s World Champion and WWE Divas Champion generated buzz after sharing videos of herself training in a ring, which led many fans to expect a surprise appearance in the match.
“Yeah, I wish I could be in the Rumble and there was a viral video circulating of the first-ever Women’s Royal Rumble, and it was the same year I got told I couldn’t wrestle again and no one knew it at the time, and then fast-forward, I do my retirement speech the day after WrestleMania but, no one knew at the time so I wasn’t part of it and I was backstage in Gorilla and I’m really emotional.
“They have images of me backstage just crying, just being like, ‘This is what I’ve always dreamed of. This is what I wanna be a part of. I hope one day I can be a part of it again.’ So that video was viral as well, and everyone’s just like hoping that I was gonna be in this Rumble, that I finally get to be a part of that, that I’ve always dreamed of being a part of. So yeah, it was incredible. I wish I was part of it but there’s more to it. WWE has to make that decision. Not me.”
