Konnan has revealed that plans for Saraya (fka Paige) to make her Lucha Libre AAA debut were recently nixed.
Saraya made her AEW debut at Dynamite: Grand Slam on September 21, before it was announced that she had officially signed with the company.
On Keepin’ it 100, Konnan revealed that AAA wanted to use Saraya in a non-wrestling role for TripleMania XXX on October 15. Noting that Saraya was appearing for her family’s promotion World Association of Wrestling on this date, Konnan noted:
“As a matter of fact, we were gonna use her for TripleMania. We spoke to her management… but she had a date in England I believe with her parents’ promotion and she wasn’t down for wrestling. Doesn’t mean she couldn’t but she wasn’t down to wrestle.”
On the October 5 edition of Dynamite, Saraya was involved in a brawl, dropping Rebel with a superkick. Saraya hasn’t wrestled since December 2017, with the star announcing her in-ring retirement in 2018 due to a neck injury.
There has been some speculation about the former ‘Paige’s current status, with the star teasing a return to the ring.
