Saraya (Paige in WWE) made an appearance on Wednesday’s episode of “Busted Open Radio” to promote tonight’s AEW Dynamite TV tapings.
During the podcast, the AEW wrestler revealed that the one thing she regrets about her debut promo is the line where she said, “Finally, a boss that listens to me.”
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On her debut promo in AEW: “I wanted to come across more, ‘is she a good guy or a bad guy too?’ Just the way I delivered it, it wasn’t my proudest promo I’ve done. If I had to own up a promo, which I ended up having with Britt, I had to redeem myself. Moxley helped out a lot with these promos. With that one, he was like, ‘Speak from the heart. Stop trying to plan a promo out in your head. Speak from experience and more personal’ without taking low blow jabs just, ‘I’m a star.’ Then it was, ‘who is the babyface and who is the heel’ with me and Britt. We decided it doesn’t matter, you don’t have to have a definitive babyface or heel.”
On the line she regrets saying: “The one thing I do wish I didn’t say, I got asked to say a certain sentence, the sentence where I was like, ‘Finally, a boss that listens to me’ I wish I didn’t take that low hanging fruit. I’ve always spoke highly of WWE because they helped me a lot. I love AEW. There is no reason to take that low hanging fruit and I feel that caused a lot of tribalism and negative reaction. There are some things you wish you didn’t say, and that’s one of them. I feel it would have gone smoother if I wouldn’t have said that. I understand why people were made, ‘but I’m playing a character. Be quiet.’”
On AEW All Acess: “I’m barely on it. If I’m being honest, I’m barely on it. I’m kind of scared of reality shows… Yeah, I was drinking the whole time [on Total Divas]. I can’t remember half of it. I’m a little intimidated by reality shows.”
