While we still ponder on exactly what Paige could confront Bayley about, here are three possible ways we could see her return to WWE SmackDown.

In the days building to WWE SmackDown this week, it was teased that Paige would be making her return to the Blue Brand to confront Women’s Champ Bayley about … something. The adverts didn’t really specify and seeing how Bayley’s never so much as name dropped Paige (at least recently), it was all a mystery. Guess they really wanted us to tune in to find out.

Of course, as most of us know now, we couldn’t tune in to find out because in response to the massive worldwide COVID-19 spread, plans were changed. The SmackDown event was relocated from the Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Michigan to WWE’s own Performance Center in Tampa, Florida.

The last minute change in location put a monkey wrench into whatever the company had planned for Paige’s return because she couldn’t make the trip to Florida due to travel issues out of her control. Therefore, we may not see Paige back on WWE SmackDown until next week’s episode and even then, that’s not totally guaranteed right now.

However, regardless of when we will see Paige back on SmackDown, the biggest question on our minds has to do with the “how” of it. How could Paige make her return to the brand she once booked as an onscreen General Manager and what can she do when she gets there?
