Paige mentions that it was a long road back to the ring from injury, but in her first matches back she began noticing some issues with her neck/spine. She kept working matches and thought it would pass when her body became accustomed to working regularly again. When the decisive accident happened at a recent house show she lost all feeling in her arms and legs, and she says that was absolutely terrifying.
She notes that some fans are already asking her if she’ll be able to return to the ring, but she doesn’t see that happening anytime soon. She says her doctor told her that she may be able to wrestle again in 15-20 years, but she’s not sure if she’ll want to be wrestling at that point.
Paige informs that she started to wrestle when she was 13 years old. She grew up in a wrestling family and one day her father needed another female talent for a show. He told her that she was on the show and she wrestled that night in her regular clothing that she’d been wearing all day. She actually got knocked out cold in that match.
From there she started to go on the road, and in her second match she tried to climb to the top rope without any experience and she fell, hitting her head and knocking herself out again. She laughs, noting that it was a pretty rough start to her career.
