Paige has given a hint regarding her long-term future in wrestling after recently returning to WWE at WrestleMania 42.

Night One of WrestleMania 42 saw Paige make her long-awaited return to WWE after a four year absence, with the former two-time Divas Champion wrestling inside a WWE ring for the first time since December 2017.

With the women’s division seeing so much progress and evolution since the last time she was an active member of the WWE roster, Paige is looking forward to seizing opportunities that were previously impossible to her and the rest of the female roster during her first run in the company.

Detailing her goals for her current WWE run during her appearance on What’s Your Story? With Steph McMahon, Paige said she’s going into this run just wanting to “be happy and have fun,” as she believes it’s likely going to be her last in wrestling.

Paige said:

“I came in this time with the mindset that I just wanna be happy and have fun because I don’t think I’m gonna 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.”

Paige then recalled being forced to sit in Gorilla Position and watch the first Women’s Royal Rumble Match take place in 2018, a wrong she’s determined to put right now she’s back, fit and able to compete once again:

“I do want to finally be able to be in the Royal Rumble that I (didn’t get to) be a part of and do the Elimination Chambers and do all these stipulation matches that were not around when I was around.

“I had to be backstage in Gorilla when the Royal Rumble just started, and nobody knew I was retired at that point and so I just sat there, 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 gonna ever be a part of it again.

“So to have this moment where I’m back in WWE, my neck is good, I’m wrestling again, there is opportunities for me to be a part of these stipulation matches. I’m really excited, I’m really excited for the next couple of years.”
