Paige was betrayed by The Bella Twins at WWE SummerSlam 2026, in a moment that was, in theory, supposed to be a shocking heel turn in Minneapolis. Paige returned to WWE in April 2026 as an ally of Nikki and Brie, and filled in for an injured Nikki at WrestleMania to win the Women’s Tag Titles with Brie. Speaking to SoCal Val at Monopoly Events’ Wales Comic Con, Paige spoke about her return and fans predicting a heel turn by the Bellas early on. She said, “You just get that vibe from Nikki out the gate there. You know what I mean? After we won the championships at WrestleMania, the hug that she gave me afterwards and the freaking side-eyes she was giving me, I was like, “Ah, is it going to be too long until she turns on me?”” Flash forward to SummerSlam, where Paige acknowledged that being betrayed by Nikki and Brie hardly came as a surprise to her or the fans. She said, “I kind of expected it at SummerSlam too, especially when I gave Brie a really long hug, you know. I don’t know if you guys notice, but I gave her a long hug after the SummerSlam match, and I was just like, this feels really sad… I mean, everyone expected it. Let’s be real, right?” Paige and Brie lost the Women’s Tag Titles to Fatal Influence at Saturday Night’s Main Event, and they and Nikki lost to the faction again at SummerSlam.
