Renee Paquette: We All Need To Put A Little Respect On Saraya’s Name

Renee Paquette discusses Saraya losing the AEW Women’s World Championship.

Saraya returned to the ring at AEW Full Gear 2022. At AEW All In at Wembley Stadium, she won the AEW Women’s World Championship. Hikaru Shida dethroned Saraya on the October 10 episode of AEW Dynamite.

Speaking on Women’s Wrestling Talk, Paquette shared her thoughts on Saraya losing the AEW Women’s Championship.

“I mean, for sure, disappointing,” Renee Paquette said. “You look at somebody like Saraya and what she brings to AEW, what she brings to that women’s division. I think she kind of finding her footing again as well, after, you know, not wrestling for five-plus years. So for her to come back from this injury, thinking she was never gonna wrestle again, thinking she was fully retired, boots hung up to now coming back into this world and trying to figure it all out again.

“It’s been really cool to see her get into her groove, and I think are having that championship belt and being able to have a different run, I would have loved to have seen that I would have loved to have seen her be able to defend that title more and have some more of those matches and have more of those opportunities.

Renne Paquette continued by praising Shida and highlighting how Saraya helped change the change the game. She shared her belief that people should continue to put respect on Saraya’s name.

“Obviously, Shida is fantastic,” Paquette said. “We have so many great women. But yeah, Raya is my girl and I think that she just brings a certain cache to women’s wrestling. She really is that woman that… she didn’t single-handedly but she was a big part of changing the way that we look at women’s wrestling and changing the mold of what female wrestlers are. I think that we all need to continue to slap a little respect on that woman’s name. She’s a badass.”

Shida lost the AEW Women’s World Championship to Toni Storm at AEW Full Gear on November 18.
