Saraya admits she may have been “a little rusty” during her appearance on AEW Dynamite. 

After making her debut at Grand Slam, Saraya cut a promo on this week’s show leading to the title match between Toni Storm and Serena Deeb. She posted to social media on Thursday stating that she is proud of the segment for showcasing a “good portion” of the women’s division, even if it wasn’t her best performance. 

“On a good note I’m so proud of the women yesterday. Not only did they get more than 5 mins to have a match. It was the first ever lumberjack match. A woman on commentary and a good portion of the roster being showcased. That’s a win (even if I was a little rusty,” Saraya posted to Twitter. 

Saraya has reportedly signed a three-year deal with the company. It is not clear if she has been medically cleared for an in-ring return, however. She retired from WWE in 2018 due to neck injuries.
