Paige and Alberto Del Rio were interviewed by TMZ Sports and they revealed that Paige has been training to get into MMA and that she may get into it “when [her] time in WWE comes to an end.” When asked if she would ever get into MMA, she said:
“When my time with WWE comes to an end, then maybe. I’ve actually really enjoyed it. I want to start training like every single week. [Del Rio] is a great trainer for me. He’s the one who’s been training me, so it’s been really fun.”
According to Dave Meltzer, Paige is expected to be cleared to return to WWE from her neck injury in April or May.
There are rumors that she could ask for a release from WWE in order to focus on MMA, and that WWE would have been “happy” to release her, but with the upcoming movie about her life (co-produced by The Rock and WWE Films), that obviously may change things.
