In a recent interview with Chris Jericho as part of Talk Is Jericho, All Elite Wrestling star Saraya discussed several topics and revealed that WWE’s Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque reached out to her about a return to WWE prior to her making the decision to sign with AEW.

“Hunter did reach out to me and he wanted to talk to me, he thought it was my decision, because he wasn’t there at the time, he thought it was my decision to leave, no bro, it was Vince and Johnny. We got talking, but then I sat and talked to AEW and I was like, man I miss that side of wrestling where you can pitch your own ideas and you can just have fun, I haven’t felt excited about wrestling in a very long time, so the first day of being here, it was awesome, everyone is so nice, it’s crazy just how different it can feel.

I was thinking about it, again, I don’t have issues with the WWE, I just wish that some things were done differently, that’s the only thing I have against them. There are so many years where I could have been utilized more, my friends were around me, I was so depressed about it. I was thinking about going back there, then I spoke to you, I spoke to Mox, I was speaking to Britt Baker and I got on the phone with Tony and he was so excited and I was like, I think I’m going to give this a shot.

If you wouldn’t have pushed it, I understand Tony is busy, he has two different football teams, British and American, and also this big company he has to run, I understand he’s busy. A few months had gone by and I was like, I feel like he’s not interested and that’s okay and totally fine, I was getting the calls from WWE and was like, should I, am I going to be 100% happy going back and then, you guys called me and made it sound so exciting.”
