Paige VanZant recently announced that she would be making the switch over to pro wrestling with the big promotion, AEW. She's no longer competing in MMA but she will still be taking fights in bare-knuckle boxing.
On Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer revealed that Paige VanZant currently has her AEW debut planned for the May 29 pay-per-view event. There are plenty of options for her as she looks to add another sport to her growing resume.
“They’re still going to do something with Sammy Guevara and Scorpio Sky. So the plan for sure was a mixed tag. … (h/t Andrew Ravens of WrestlingNews.co).
“They said they were gonna do it until they get the match they want, and they made it very clear the match they wanted was Sammy and Tay against Paige VanZant and Scorpio Sky or Ethan Page, they want that mixed tag. Unless something changed, the mixed tag is it….I was outright told over the weekend that it was listed. Until it’s announced it’s not announced, they could do it a different way. But, I was actually outright told that the match is tentatively scheduled for the pay-per-view.”
Paige VanZant has not competed in an official match yet but was present on the April 27 episode of AEW Dynamite where she helped Sky win the TNT championship in a Ladder match. Many expect the former MMA fighter to have a bright future in the pro wrestling world and AEW has been the right choice to see her do well in the squared circle.
