Paige, who retired from WWE in 2018, has been one of the pioneers of WWE Evolution – the company’s all-women pay-per-view event. She said that WWE held such events in the past. However, WWE Evolution was not brought back in 2019. Paige said WWE should bring back Evolution. She further added that she did not understand why the company could not arrange for another all-women PPV event. Paige said that she felt like many female wrestlers in the WWE fold were being held back.
Paige praises WWE women wrestlers including Sasha Banks
Paige appreciated and praised Sasha Banks, Charlotte Flair, Bayley and Becky Lynch. She added that many other WWE women wrestlers were not being given opportunity. Paige said it was exciting to have some fresh faces on WWE like Nattie Neidhart, Lacey Evans and Liv Morgan.
