Paige will return to the UK for a huge homecoming show after her upcoming WWE exit.

The former Divas Champion and all-round British wrestling legend recently confirmed July 7 will be the final day of her WWE contract and she’ll be moving on when it expires.

Now, her family’s World Association of Wrestling promotion – where she first got her start, as detailed in 2019 biopic Fighting With My Family – has announced she’ll be back for a special appearance later this year.

They wrote: ‘Look who’s coming home… @RealPaigeWWE will be at #FightmareIV, stepping back into a WAW ring for the first time in over a decade! What role will she play in the show? Stay tuned to find out!’

The show will take place at the Norfolk Showground on October 15.

Her brother and fellow pro wrestler Zak Zodiak shared the news and added: ‘She’s baaaaack! @RealPaigeWWE is coming home’

Look who’s coming home…@RealPaigeWWE will be at #FightmareIV, stepping back into a WAW ring for the first time in over a decade!

What role will she play in the show? Stay tuned to find out!

In a lengthy statement earlier this month, Paige confirmed she is leaving WWE in a few weeks, but also promised to return to the ring years after she was forced to retire due to injury.

She wrote: ‘Paige here! July 7th will be the last day with WWE. I’m so thankful and I appreciate the opportunities that the company has given me.

‘I will always be appreciative of the company that took in an 18-year-old British pale emo girl that didn’t look like your average diva, giving me the chance of a lifetime and making me feel like a superstar.

‘I know after my neck injury taking me out of in ring status, it was pretty hard to keep me around for as long as you did and for that I’m thankful too.

‘Thank you to the WWE Universe. You guys are the most passionate group of fans I’ve ever seen. Hope you continue to stay on this journey with me.

‘I think the toughest part weirdly enough is having to let the Paige name go! But Saraya is helluva name. Kudos to my mum for that one. FYI I’m not saying I’ll never be in the ring. That day will most certainly come again! Wherever the return maybe.’

She has since revealed she’s not been cleared for in-ring action yet, but it’s clearly something that’s on her mind.
