SHIMMER is the premier women's wrestling promotions in the United States. It was there that Paige gained notoriety in the country and earned a reputation as one of the bright young stars in the industry. Her main foe during her time with the independent company? Her mother, Sweet Saraya. During SHIMMER Vol. 43, Paige (as Britani Knight) lost a match to Australian Jessie McKay. The loss sent her mother over the edge. Saraya berated her daughter and disowned her, no longer willing to take credit for a daughter who was dishonoring the family. Tired of constantly being on the receiving end of tongue lashings by her mom, Knight attacked Saraya. They brawled and fought for several minutes as officials and security tried desperately to keep them separated. At SHIMMER Vol. 44, mother and daughter clashed in a No Disqualification match that saw Knight defeat Saraya following an inverted DDT.
