I actually like Byron Saxton just fine, but maybe they can try her on commentary? Can't think of anything else that doesn't involve an in ring return, and I doubt she's been cleared for that. Well... Otunga isn't all that good and Corey Graves is essentially getting two paychecks by working in Raw AND SmackDown. Paige on commentary can't be THAT bad, can it? Yeah, still not sure why Corey does commentary for both shows. Tom/Corey/Paige on SD could be good, with Cole and Renee working Raw as a duo (Lord knows we can't go without a three person announce team on both shows though). I guess she could also be a manager, but can't really think of anyone in need of a mouthpiece (already on the main roster anyway). Absolution reunion? Mandy can talk, though.

She was really bad during the Not Fabulous Moolah Battle Royal, but it’s hard to judge off of that since she didn’t have much of a voice AND she was about to officially retire the next night.

She already got her “Talk Shit Get Bit” tattoos altered to say “Talk Smack Get Wacked”. Just awful timing for her. I'll personally pay for her to have it altered to Talk Poop, Get Scooped She's getting "SD fired, McDonald's hire?" tonight.

My first thought was putting her in Renee's spot on Raw and move Renee to SDL. Gets Paige something to do, gets another female on commentary, and gets rid of awkwardness when Dean is out heeling it up.

They didn’t fire her though. They said she was moving to another position, whatever that means.

Did they fire Alexa as well since she is the GM of the women's division on Raw? Or they're going to keep her because she's thier Golden Girl? I noted on Twitter yesterday that they didn't mention Alexa once, they had the woman's gauntlet match with Stephanie making it, there was nothing said about her being in charge of the woman's division. I just didn't think about what that would mean for Paige at the time.

Mandy still needs a bit of work with her promos. There are too many unnecessary and overly long pauses. With more opportunities though I think she'll get there.
Funny enough I just finished reading the Smackdown results and there was zero mention of Paige. This is how I'm finding out she's "fired".

She showed up at the beginning of the show during Shane's big speech to the locker room where they mentioned that she was "relieved of her duties".

She showed up at the beginning of the show during Shane's big speech to the locker room where they mentioned that she was "relieved of her duties". And in a way that put her over as actually doing a good job as the GM. In the clip WWE posted, it was pretty much portrayed as "you did great, it's just everyone up top that's changing things."

She isn't being fired so much as transferred.

I heard she’s been cleared to compete, but I’m assuming they’re letting her rest up until the New Year so they can start fresh and insert her into Raw’s women’s storylines..that they don’t actually have so yeah, Natalya vs Alexa Bliss, fun stuff.

The way I heard it is that she's cleared for very, very minimal bumps, and they probably won't let her actually wrestle until the Rumble. Which considering they held off on using both her and Sasha until a week before Evolution, she barely stepped into the ring and ended up getting concussed again is probably a good idea. Besides that she also had a bad cold where she couldn't even talk last week, so just as well they don't push anything.

Makes zero sense in kayfabe OR reality. In kayfabe, she was a fantastic GM and made excellent decisions. In reality, she's over as f*** and people always react well to her. Well I see it as being laid off. And that doesnt have anything to do with her performance. They just had management changes, it works this way IMO.
