LAS VEGAS – WrestleMania can still provide some unexpected moments, and it showed Saturday night.
Ahead of the start of the fatal four-way match for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship, Nikki Bella came out with Brie Bella and announced she could no longer participate in the match because of an ankle injury.
She said, however, she called a friend for backup.
Paige’s music hit and the crowd at WrestleMania 42 went absolutely berserk. Paige would team up with Brie Bella for the match against champions Nia Jax and Lash Legend, Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair and Bayley and Lyra Valkyria.
Bella started the match for her team. The crowd was eager for Bella to tag in Paige, and when she did, the crowd went wild. Paige took care Jax before Bliss went on the attack.
Flair tried to help Bliss, but was hit with Nikki Bella’s crutch. Bliss had Paige in position for a top-rope move but took her eye off Paige enough for her to recover. Paige countered Bliss and hit the RamPaige. She pinned Bliss for the win.
