WWE Backstage panellist and former Divas Champion Paige recently spoke with Seconds Out, and discussed being a part of the FS1 show, plus working with former WWE Champion CM Punk.

Paige had nothing but praise for Punk, and stated that he's very respectful. She added that Punk guides her for production meetings and suggests stuff that she can later say on the show.
"He's so wonderful. I respect him. I didn't get to talk to him until he came back, which was a big surprise for me - I marked out. He's very respectful and he helps. He guides you, like when it comes to production meetings, he's like, 'Maybe, you can say this or that.'"
Punk made a shocking appearance on the November 12 edition of WWE Backstage last year, and it was later revealed that he would be working for the show as an analyst and special contributor.
The former WWE Superstar has been pretty vocal about the WWE product on the show, and has criticized several aspects of WWE's weekly television.
Punk also got into a Twitter feud with former Universal Champion Seth Rollins, which led to many believing that WWE is building towards a possible dream match in the near future.

While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
