“A boss that finally listens to me.”
Oh yeah Saraya/Paige it’s not like Vince McMahon made you the first ever NXT women’s champion or a Divas champion.
One match with Tay Melo or Botch Baker and there goes your neck again.#AEWDynamite

Saraya’s dig tonight didn’t even make any sense to one fan.
Saraya’s dig tonight didn’t even make any sense. Girl, you were on here thanking Vince two months ago 🗿 It got such a lukewarm pop too, we’re all tired of it now.

Notwithstanding Saraya’s statement, according to one user, she received the full backing of WWE for years despite having a ton of personal issues.
Saraya had the full support of WWE for years while she had tons of personal problems, and was paid for literally nothing for the last few years of her contract. But, because she has to, she throws shade even though anyone that follows wrestling knows how dishonest that was.
