Paige is pretty underrated. Always overshadowed by the four horsewomen. Paige was signed to WWE as a pasty white 18 year old goth girl from Norwich. If that's not a sign of change what is? The signing of Paige was sort of the catalyst to the women's revolution. This lead to those great Emma v Paige matches in NXT.
Im probably just chatting shit but Paige seems very influential.
I think they regretted signing her on so young too. I think Kelly Kelly was also signed on very young (18/19) and Orton has told tales about her.
Might be the age thing and being around older men, I don't know but I doubt they will be doing it again anytime soon.
I never really watched her myself. I do remember people making a big deal about her in NXT tho.
