Saraya makes her entrance at AEW Grand Slam Dynamite 2022

Mandy Rose is a big fan of Saraya in, or outside of WWE.

In case you somehow missed it, former NXT Women’s Champion and two-time WWE Divas Champion, Saraya (FKA Paige) made her All Elite Wrestling debut during the 9/21 episode of AEW Dynamite: Grand Slam.

Rose would be among many WWE talent to seemingly wish All Elite Wrestling’s latest addition well wishes in her new venture, as she posted several heart-warming emojis on Twitter, following her friend’s debut:

Rose, of course, was part of the shorty-lived ‘Absolution’ stable alongside Sonya Deville, which was managed by Saraya and the squad made quite the debut by attacking the likes of Sasha Banks and Bayley during the pair’s main roster debut.

Another bit of history between Rose and the former-Paige is the pair teamed up alongside the aforementioned Deville as the trio faced Sasha Banks, Bayley, and Mickie James during a house show in 2017, which ended up being Saraya’s final in-ring match to-date.
