Saraya Reflects on Her Wild Past and Journey to Sobriety
Saraya's Life After AEW


Since departing from All Elite Wrestling, Saraya has chosen not to affiliate with any wrestling promotions, opting instead to embrace life on her own terms. Following the end of a six-year romantic relationship, she is relishing her newfound freedom, which includes candidly sharing her life experiences through interviews and her podcast.
In a recent session where she played the game 'Never Have I Ever' with Denise Salcedo, Saraya revealed her past as a party enthusiast. The renowned female wrestler openly acknowledged her frequent visits to strip clubs before she decided to pursue sobriety.

When asked about her experiences in strip clubs, Saraya admitted to having given lap dances and regularly attending such venues, a stark contrast to her current lifestyle where she avoids alcohol.
“Oh no, I’ve been—yeah, I used to love a good strip club back in the day. Actually no, I… I haven’t been to a strip club in a minute, but like when I was a drinker, oh you couldn’t get me out of those places.” (quotes courtesy Ringside News)

A Legacy Beyond the Party Days
Saraya has been open about her path to sobriety, particularly after facing challenges during her WWE career nearly a decade ago. Despite the ups and downs, she has made significant comebacks and is unafraid to discuss her past struggles. In her interview, she emphasized that while those days are behind her, the experiences continue to resonate with others who may be facing similar battles.
Fans often prefer to remember her by her real name, Paige, who had a remarkable career in WWE, earning multiple accolades, including two reigns as WWE Divas Champion and one reign as NXT Women’s Champion. Notably, she was the first woman to hold the NXT title and the only one to capture both titles simultaneously.
