Wrestler Profile

Paige

Paige changed WWE's women's division the night she debuted — winning the Divas Championship at 21 in her first main-roster appearance, an anti-diva jolt of Norwich goth authenticity that presaged the women's revolution. Born into Britain's wrestling Knight family, she was a veteran before adulthood.

The first NXT Women's Champion, her career was cruelly shortened by neck injuries, forcing retirement at 25 — a story Hollywood told in the film Fighting with My Family. Her second act came as Saraya in AEW, where she completed an emotional in-ring comeback and captured the AEW Women's World Championship in her home country at Wembley.

This is her house, as the chant goes — every women's locker room since owes the mortgage. WrestleRanks voters rank her on impact-per-year: few careers this short changed this much.
