"Years ahead of their time" - Saraya's (fka Paige) father lauds her in-ring chemistry with 3-time WWE Divas Champion (Exclusive)

AEW star Saraya's father, Ricky Knight, recently spoke about the chemistry she shared with AJ Lee in WWE.

Making her main roster debut in WWE on April 7, 2014, episode of RAW, the anti-Diva immediately got into a feud with Lee. Surprisingly, the three-time Divas Champion challenged her to an impromptu fight, which Saraya won. This made her the youngest Divas Champion at the age of 21. She was also the only woman to hold both Divas and NXT Women's Championships simultaneously.

Speaking about their chemistry in WWE during an exclusive interview with Sportskeeda Senior Editor Bill Apter, Ricky Knight stated that the two women were years ahead of their time. He added that whatever the women did came across as fantastic.

"They were both so.. years ahead of their time I think, and her and AJ [Lee] had made this chemistry where they clicked and whatever they have done together came across as fantastic. So yeah, we really love AJ, and ya, that was a real good time when they were together in a storyline together." [1:15 - 1:38]

@AEW @Saraya @TBSNetwork It's great to see Saraya getting physical again, after so long, I have a good feeling she's been cleared to wrestle - her against Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D will go hard!!!
