Wrestler Saraya, formerly Paige in WWE, stirred up the wrestling community when she made a cryptic comment about WWE Evolution, reigniting speculation about a possible return to the company that made her famous. On July 2, Saraya posted on X (formerly Twitter) the short and direct phrase: “Evolution is this weekend?”. That question was enough for fans to start intensely discussing the chance of seeing her in the WWE ring again, especially at the company’s traditional women’s event.
WWE Evolution 2025, scheduled for July 12 and 13, will feature a Battle Royal bringing together several stars from the women’s roster, which increases the chances of a surprise. Although Saraya herself previously stated that she did not intend to return to WWE this year, her tweet raised fans’ hopes that a one-off appearance may be in the cards.
Saraya built a distinguished career in WWE under the name Paige, becoming the youngest Divas Champion at 21 years old, and becoming a symbol of the women's revolution in the company. After stepping away from the ring in 2018 due to serious injuries, she worked as a manager and backstage personality until signing with AEW in 2022, where she returned to wrestling and won the AEW Women's World Championship at All In 2023 in London. Saraya has currently been out of action since October 2024, when she was laid off from AEW, and there is no official confirmation of what her next step will be. Her tweet about Evolution, therefore, rekindled the expectation that she could surprise and appear unexpectedly, possibly entering the Battle Royal or another segment of the event. Fans reacted with euphoria and also caution, divided opinions on the real chance of Saraya returning to WWE at this Evolution. In any case, the post served its purpose: it got the audience talking, raised the hype and increased interest in the show's card.
With Evolution fast approaching, we can only wait and see if Saraya will actually be part of this grand celebration of women's wrestling. If she does, it will be a historic return for one of the greatest stars to ever step foot in the women's division.
