The highly anticipated return of Saraya, formerly known as Paige in WWE, to the world of professional wrestling finally took place on the latest episode of AEW Dynamite. Unfortunately, the 31-year-old English star’s comeback bout did not end in triumph, as she fell short alongside her tag-team partner Harley Cameron against AEW Women’s World Champion Toni Storm and her protégée Mariah May.
This marked Saraya’s first match since her appearance on Rampage in February this year, and fans were eager to see how she would fare in her return to the squared circle. Teaming up with Cameron, the pair faced off against Storm and May, reigniting a rivalry that had been building since Storm failed to defeat Saraya for the World Title at Dynamite Grand Slam 2023.
The match saw the former NXT UK Women’s Champion, Saraya, and Storm pick up where they left off, with the two women displaying their skills and determination in the ring. Storm and May, meanwhile, showcased their unity as a tag team, working seamlessly together to take down their opponents.
In the end, Storm and May emerged victorious, delivering their respective finishers to secure the win. The match ended with Storm hitting a devastating Storm Zero on Cameron, sealing the victory for her team. The aftermath of the match, however, took an interesting turn as Storm was laid out by her upcoming Double or Nothing 2024 opponent, Serena Deeb, ahead of their highly anticipated World Championship match later this week.
Despite the loss, Saraya’s return to the ring marks an exciting development in AEW. Fans will be eagerly watching to see how she bounces back from this defeat and what’s next for the English star in professional wrestling. With the women’s division in AEW heating up, Saraya’s return couldn’t have come at a more exciting time, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for this talented wrestler.
