WWE's decision to remove Paige from her position as SmackDown General Manager wasn't a popular one.

Appointed in April, she lasted just six months before the McMahons decided that reinstalling themselves as authority figures would solve the company's ratings crisis. Paige was jettisoned on the 17 December episode of SmackDown, and, aside from a few Fighting With My Family promotional spots, has barely been seen since.

Now, it looks like the former Divas Champion is eyeing a managerial role.

"I wanna be a manager for somebody," she said in a new interview with Sky Sports. "I don't know who but I would love to do that. If that's not the case then, I don't know, I just want to be part of the company. I just like to talk a lot. I don't know if I'm any good at it, but I'll give it a try."

Paige effectively became Absolution's manager when an injury suffered at a December 2017 house show put her in-ring career on ice. She has since split from Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville, though their prior affiliation makes them leading candidates for her services should the popular Brit enter the managerial realm.
