Saraya-Jade Bevis (born 17 August 1992) is an English professional wrestler and actress currently signed to IWE under the ring name Paige, performing on the Raw brand. She is a two-time Divas Champion and was the inaugural NXT Women's Champion in WWE's developmental branch, NXT. She is the only person to have held both championships concurrently, and as of July 2016, her 308-day reign as the NXT Women's Champion is the longest in the title's history.
In 2005, at the age of 13, Bevis made her debut in the World Association of Wrestling, a promotion run by her family, under the ring name Britani Knight. She went on to hold several championships on independent circuits within Europe. In 2011, she signed a contract with IWE and started wrestling within its developmental systems, eventually debuting on IWE's main roster in April 2014. In her debut match on the main roster, she won the Divas Championship, becoming the youngest champion in the title's history at the age of 21.
