1. WWE Doesn’t Need Paige
Paige might have been a big part of the WWE Divas Revolution last year, but her stock has fallen quite a bit in the past six months. Paige was once considered a key part in turning around women’s wrestling in WWE shortly after she defeated AJ Lee for the WWE Divas Championship in 2014.
But since losing to the Bella Twins for several months, she was part of the WWE Divas Revolution storyline that saw her form a team with Charlotte and Becky Lynch. The women’s faction didn’t last long as Paige would turn heel against both of them. Since then, the WWE has put a big focus on not only Lynch and Charlotte, but also Sasha Banks.
The WWE women’s roster is being led by those three wrestlers and are leading the way in their respective brands. Add in some of the recent female wrestlers that have also been called up in recent months like Alexa Bliss and Carmella. It’s kind of hard to imagine where the WWE would fit Paige into that loaded picture.

Considering how women’s wrestling has improved so much in the last two years, Paige hasn’t been able to evolve accordingly in the WWE to keep up with the changes.
