Two years ago, a debut of an NXT superstar rocked the WWE universe like never before. “The Anti-Diva” Paige made her debut on the next night of WrestleMania 30. And forever, her debut will be remembered as one of the best WWE debuts

AJ Lee was fresh off her victory at WrestleMania 30 against an entire crop of diivas. As AJ Lee sauntered her way to the ring with her crazy skipping, WWE universe was wondering when her reign would come to an end. AJ Lee picks up the microphone and starts gloating about her victory.

Out comes Paige, to a tremendous ovation, with a nervous smile and determined expression. She walks up to the champion and congratulates her on the win. AJ Lee mocks her in her trademark patronizing manner, slaps her and insults her as only she could do it. At this point the crowd is angry with AJ for being a jerk.

AJ Lee tauntingly offers a Divas Championship match to Paige who was not sure she could do it justice. AJ Lee then starts the match with some insulting charades. Soon Paige is locked in the Black Widow. Paige somehow fights out of it and delivers a Paige Turner out of nowhere to pickup the upset victory to a tremendous ovation.

Who could possibly hope for a better debut for Paige?
