Former AEW World Women’s Champion Saraya has announced that she has left All Elite Wrestling.
Fresh off the publication of her life’s story in the Hell in Boots, the former Paige in AEW made the announcement on the debut episode of her new podcast Rulebreakers With Saraya.
“I’m here to tell you that me and AEW’s relationship has come to an end.” Saraya said, as reported by Entertainment Weekly and others. “I had an amazing time there. There’s no bad blood between us. I had such a magical time… It’s just me thinking that I just don’t fit in right now. I feel like I might be taking someone else’s spot, someone who could be doing something really special.”
Saraya won the AEW World Women’s Championship at the All In event in her home country of England in 2023, holding the title for just over a month before losing it to Hikaru Shida. Prior to that, as Paige in the WWE, she was the first-ever NXT Women’s Champion and became a two-time Divas Champion.
What will the future hold for Saraya? A return to the WWE as Paige? We can’t wait to find out!
