Booker T, a legendary wrestler and commentator, has weighed in on the recent departure of Ava from WWE and endorsed Saraya as the potential new General Manager of NXT. In a recent podcast episode, he expressed his thoughts on Ava's performance, praising her contributions to the NXT brand. Booker T believes Ava was an excellent fit for the role, highlighting her ability to connect with the younger generation of wrestlers and her pulse on the current trends and needs of fans.
The discussion then turned to the question of who should replace Ava. Booker T brought up the name of Chelsea Green, a two-time Women's United States Champion, suggesting she could also excel in this position. However, the conversation took an intriguing turn when Booker T's co-host, Brad Gilmore, suggested a controversial idea: Saraya, the former Paige, as the new NXT General Manager.
Booker T was initially intrigued by the idea, describing it as 'awe-shocking' and 'out of left field.' He acknowledged Saraya's potential to excel in the role, given her experience as a wrestler and her successful tenure as a general manager for SmackDown in 2018. The podcast host also noted that Saraya's recent return to training videos has sparked excitement among fans, with millions of views and speculation about her potential return to in-ring action.
The idea of Saraya taking on the NXT General Manager role is particularly intriguing, especially considering her history with WWE and her recent resurgence in AEW. While she has not been active in the ring since 2017 due to a neck injury, the prospect of her returning to a more physical role in WWE has generated significant interest. The question remains: could Saraya be the perfect fit to lead NXT into its next phase?
