Paige Answers Questions On Creative Frustrations And Who She Would Pick As A Tag Team Partner
WWE Diva and former champion Paige spoke at the San Jose Wizard World Comic Con.
Paige talked about frustrations with creative and who she would want as a tag team partner. Paige says that working with creative can be frustrating at times. Paige gave the examples of being put in a 5-on-1 situation at Survivor Series and the Submission Sorority name as times when she spoke up against creative and they did not listen to her opinion.
According to Paige, she told creative that the Survivor Series crowd would turn when she was working as a heel against five babyfaces.
“I knew it was going to turn out the way it did because I was on the bad guys’ side, but I said to them, ‘there’s five girls against one girl, even if she’s a bad guy, [the audience] is going to support the one by herself’ and that’s how it turned out.” Paige continued, “the whole crowd ended up turning on the good guys and chanting for me instead, but it’s just like, ‘okay, so you’re dumb. I told you this.'”
Paige said she also told creative that the Submission Sorority name was a bad idea.
“I said to a couple of the writers, I was like, ‘dude, Submission Sorority? Don’t let children Google that. So we have to, like, change it.’ And they were like, ‘oh, we’ll speak with Vince [McMahon] at some point.’ And, I’m like, ‘okay’. And then I see we get called the Submission Sorority on RAW the next day, there are millions of people watching, and then suddenly people are like, ‘oh great, you’re in a porn group’.”
Paige also says that if she could pick a tag team partner in a Divas tag team division that she would choose Bayley, Emma or Sasha Banks.

WWE will tape this week’s episode of WWE SmackDown tonight. Here are the results:
* SmackDown kicks off with an in-ring promo from Seth Rollins. Rollins says on Sunday he won’t need J&J security nor Kane as a gatekeeper. Kane interrupts. The two exchange words. Rollins brings up the fact that Kane lost to Cena on Monday’s RAW. Kane then suggested that since he laid down for Seth, it’s time for Seth to return the favor. This leads to a match between the two.
* Seth Rollins vs. Kane in a non-title match ended in a no-contest. Kane tries to get Rollins to lay down for him but then reveals that he was just messing around with him. Kane then announces Dean Ambrose vs. Rollins will take place instead. As Ambrose makes his way down the ramp, Luke Harper comes out and the two brawl. Ambrose loses the upper hand until Roman Reigns makes the save.
* Roman Reigns & Dean Ambrose vs. Seth Rollins & Luke Harper is announced for later tonight.

Sheamus Said To Be Reckless In The Ring, Busted Daniel Bryan Open In Match Tonight On ‘SmackDown’
WWE Superstar Sheamus just got back, and he is already getting in trouble. As we saw on WWE RAW this past Monday, Sheamus made his return and attacked both Dolph Ziggler and Intercontinental Champion Daniel Bryan. Sheamus was sporting a new look that is certainly a bit out there for him. WWE fans chanted “you look stupid” at him for good reason on Monday.
However, it seems that Sheamus is trying to make an impression on the talent, not just the WWE fans. Tonight on WWE SmackDown, Sheamus and Daniel Bryan face off in a non-title match. Sources who watched the match claim that Sheamus was being quite reckless with Bryan and not protecting him nearly enough. Those in the crowd who watched the taped show on Tuesday claimed the same thing.
This resulted in Bryan being busted open the hard way, so much so he had to get seven stitches. While Bryan and Sheamus are known to both be stiff workers who have worked together a lot in the past, this particular time it is thought that Sheamus went too far. Especially with a guy he very well knows has not been back in the ring for that long after a severe issue.
According to viewers in Canada who saw the show last night, there will be blood shown on the WWE SmackDown broadcast. So WWE didn’t cut the match or a ton of it.
Some speculation is going around that it was planned to happen this way to bring blood back a bit with the wrestlers who are willing to take the punishment to get it. People like Daniel Bryan are already so big too that any planned spot like this between he and another talent would not result in much punishment. Meanwhile, Sheamus is well liked and there are big plans for him this year.
The idea that was planned all along was that Sheamus would come back as a heel then end up becoming one of the top heels in the company after a slow build up.
Was this match planned out to be hard hitting to put over Sheamus or were both men taking liberties? Was Sheamus going too far? We’ll know tonight, as WWE is willing to show the match in its entirety. Most would assume that they’d try to avoid spots where blood is seen a lot. However, we will see it. Then we can decide for ourselves if it was planned or simply someone taking liberties.

John Cena Talks What Winning The US Title Would Mean to him, Working With New Talents & More
John Cena recently spoke with TheNational.ae to promote WWE’s WrestleMania 31. Below are some interview highlights:
What winning the United States Title from Rusev at WrestleMania on Sunday would mean to him:
“I think it is a beacon of achievement, I really do. Right now we are a bit of a fickle situation with a WWE Heavyweight champion [Brock Lesnar]. When he shows he does some damage, believe me. I think I spoke German after Summerslam he suplexed me so many times, but I want to be able to have a viable, competitive championship that is available at every live event, at every television screening, at every special event, and at every pay-per-view. And on top of that those who have watched WWE, I am almost overly patriotic. That is not a work, that is who I am. It gives me great pride, not just from a nostalgia factor to win the championship that I won at WrestleMania 20 but to be the bearer of the championship that essentially defines the United States.”
Working with younger talents at WrestleMania:
“I said something on Raw a while back that any moment at WrestleMania is an opportunity to make life-long memories, and you hear so many people putting stress on the main event of WrestleMania. The product has grown to such an extent essentially every match is a main event, and the goal of everyone should be just to be involved at WrestleMania. It has been a pleasure, it truly has, to see the excitement, to see the anticipation, to see the nerves of what is about to happen and it is something I still go through, but to be able to be a life-long memory in a competitive situation, a story they will have to tell for the rest of their life that is a pretty cool thing.”
Daniel Bryan Talks Giving Brock Lesnar An Intercontinental Title Shot, His Current Health, Consequences of the IC Title Ladder Match & More
WWE star Daniel Bryan was recently interviewed by TheNational.ae to hype WrestleMania tonight, and the following are some highlights:
Health concerns in competing in a ladder match so soon after returning:
“It is interesting as this entire process of me coming back has been a testing of my neck. So OK, I am going to do this, now I am going to do a little more, and push a little more. I think the WWE is concerned about how far I am going to push it. Even Shawn Michaels spoke to me yesterday and said: “You know, this ladder match, you know there are more important things than that”. But I worry about that like any time I step in the ring now as far as, how is it going to hold up? It is not really worrying, it is testing it. I have taken German suplexes on my head now since I came back and you know what? It hurt like a normal German suplex getting knocked on your head. It did not hurt any worse than that, so I am pretty confident for Sunday.”
Consequences of tonight’s Ladder Match for the Intercontinental Title:
“My fear in losing is getting lost in the shuffle, which happens all the time in the WWE and that is the worst place you can be in – lost in the shuffle and not having very much to do and that sort of thing. Winning, I see a huge upside in winning. When I came back, one of my goals was to win the Intercontinental championship. It is the only title I have not won since I have been in the WWE, obviously other than the Divas title, but also to make the Intercontinental championship something that can main event other shows.
“One of my friends is Shinsuke Nakamura, who wrestles for New Japan Pro Wrestling, and we used to room together. He did that with their Intercontinental championship to where at this last Tokyo show the Intercontinental championship main evented over their Heavyweight championship, which if I win the Intercontinental championship that would be my goal. I want people to be more excited to see what I am doing with the Intercontinental title than anything that is going on with the Heavyweight title.”
A possible match with Brock Lesnar for the Intercontinental Title in the future:
“It is interesting as I am not sure that Brock Lesnar wants to fight for the Intercontinental championship at the moment. But for him to want to fight for the Intercontinental championship against me in the future, then I would have to consider that a huge success. If Brock Lesnar, who most of the time does not want to be on Raw and does not want to be on most of the pay-per-views, if he wants to fight for the Intercontinental championship, then that would be a huge success.”
Dean Ambrose Talks IC Title Ladder Match, U.S. Title Run & More
John Cena Talks Rebuilding the U.S. Title, Was Scott Steiner Barred from Entering WWE Hall of Fame?
“I think it is a beacon of achievement, I really do. Right now we are a bit of a fickle situation with a WWE Heavyweight champion [Brock Lesnar] who, when he shows he does some damage, believe me. I think I spoke German after Summerslam he suplexed me so many times. I want to be able to have a viable, competitive championship that is available at every live event, at every television, at every special event, at every pay-per-view. And on top of that, those who have watched WWE, I am almost overly patriotic. That is who I am. It gives me great pride, not just from a nostalgia factor to win the championship that I won at WrestleMania 20 but to be the bearer of essentially the championship that defines the United States.”
Several people have said that upon check-in for last night’s WWE Hall of Fame ceremony, there was a photo of Scott Steiner hanging up by the security station, apparently barring him from entry into the event.
