Maybe Tony still sees value in her to help the other women even if she can't wrestle. Shes a decent talker. I didn't mind Paige being a manager in WWE. It's just that her with Asuka and Kairi was weird.. and Absolution didn't last long. Apparently WWE wanted to get Paige back also.
It seems like the bad history of Paige is in the past. Like all of that drama that happened between her and WWE back when she was with Alberto hasn't really been a thing since then. She seems to be on good terms with a lot of people, including Athena. I don't think that it's a coincidence that Paige went out to help Athena. By the way, it's amazing how nearly everyone that was on WWE Backstage is no longer connected to WWE. Christian, Punk, Paige, Ember Moon, Renee only made an appearance for Rivals or whatever, Mark Henry, Adam Cole, Samoa Joe...
Overall, whether Saraya ever wrestles again or not I like the move. The surprise was great. Rebel couldn't stop looking legit shocked. lol Now Saraya is going to have to feud with Swerve Strickland over whos house it is.
