Paige took over the SmackDown Live General Manager position shortly after WrestleMania 34, but on Tuesday night Shane McMahon held a backstage meeting and announced that Paige will be taking on a new role with WWE.
PWInsider is reporting that Paige was removed from her position of power due to a creative decision that was made because WWE is trying to eliminate the GM role altogether.
The former Divas Champion’s new role has not been finalized yet, but there’s speculation that she may work as an analyst on kickoff show panels.
Even though Paige is no longer the SmackDown Live General Manager it’s being said that WWE officials really liked her in the GM role.
What do you think WWE should do with Paige now that she’s no longer an authority figure? Sound off in the comments below.
Thank you, @RealPaigeWWE!
