Paige Talks About Why She Thinks The Divas Revolution Is Getting Stale

Paige recently spoke to Scott Fishman of Channel Guide Magazine about working with the Total Divas crew and more. During the interview she mentioned that she feels the Divas Revolution has gotten stale.

“I felt like the whole ‘Divas Revolution’ thing started to get stale,” she said.

She then followed up by talking about why she cut what’s now being dubbed as the “Paige Bomb” promo.

“I thought it definitely needed a kick in the ass a little bit. Vince [McMahon] and our writers were so cool with the promo. They definitely gave me the freedom to say what I wanted. I kept it as tame as possible. I wanted to go a little bit harder, but I thought, ‘Nah, I’ll save it.’

“It was definitely an adrenaline rush. I wanted to be the bad guy and am happy to be the bad guy. I don’t mind being hated. But the crowd was so receptive to it and great. They were cheering most of it. I was like, ‘No, that’s not the way it was supposed to be.’ It was great. I was very nervous before doing it. I just wanted to get out there and kick some butt and light a fire under the ‘Divas Revolution’ again.”

She goes on to say that she thinks her promo will make the Divas Revolution fresh again.

“It was something new and fresh. Then we kind of went back to this stale state of having tag matches. We weren’t telling a story. Where was this going? With the whole Charlotte and Nikki [Bella] story, it was similar to me and Nikki. People were complaining about that. I feel like that a ‘Pipe Bomb,’ or ‘Paige Bomb’ as I call it, is what was needed. Now a team has split up and everyone is going for everyone, which is great. I’m looking forward to seeing where everyone else goes.”
