Paige Reveals She Filmed Content for WWE Unreal
As noted before, this past Saturday’s WWE WrestleMania 42 Night 1 event in Las Vegas, Nevada featured Paige making her surprise return to WWE. Paige teamed up with Brie Bella as Nikki Bella’s replacement for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship Fatal Four-way match, which Paige and Brie won to become the new champions.
A recent episode of the What’s Your Story? with Stephanie McMahon podcast featured Paige as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Paige revealing that she recently filmed content for WWE’s WWE Unreal docuseries.
“Again, people could be so negative… and mean… I was shooting for Unreal. I was shooting for Unreal and I said, ‘The one thing that I’m most stressed about is how mean fans can be on social media,’ and I was like, ‘I don’t want them to deter me in any way because they do.’ They can attack you but, right now, everything’s been really, really positive and I have been kind of doomscrolling a little bit just to see… I can’t help it because everyone and their reactions and stuff is great.”
Paige also gave her thoughts about the future of her in-ring wrestling career and how her current run in WWE likely will be her last for her career.
“I came in this time with a mindset where I just want to be happy and have fun, because I don’t think I’m going to be wrestling after this run. I want to just enjoy my time that I have here, embrace absolutely everything, just enjoy the journey.
That’s all I care about. But I do want to finally be able to be in the Royal Rumble that I got to not be a part of and do the Elimination Chambers and do, you know, all these stipulation matches that were not around.
I had to be backstage in Gorilla when the Royal Rumble just started, and no one knew I was retired by that point, you know? And so I just sat there and I was just really sad. It was bittersweet. I was happy that the girls finally got this big match that we didn’t have before. But I was sad because I wasn’t a part of it, and I didn’t know if I was ever going to be a part of it again. And so to have this moment where I’m back in WWE, my neck is good, I’m wrestling again, and there’s opportunities for me to be a part of these stipulation matches. I mean, man, I’m really excited. I’m really excited for the next couple of years.”

During today’s show, Rollins and co-host Kyle Brandt were discussing tonight’s NFL Draft 2026 which led to an argument between the two when comparing the athleticism of wrestlers and football players.
Kyle Brandt – “Any seventh round pick tonight can go off the top rope. They can do that stuff.”
Seth Rollins – “I don’t have to do this. I don’t have to be here. I don’t have to be on your show.”
When asked if he wanted to be on the show, Rollins responded back stating:
“I do want to be here, but not when I’m treated like this. I don’t have to do this. I don’t have to.”
