Saraya-Jade Bevis (born 17 August 1992) is an English professional wrestler and actress. She is signed to All Elite Wrestling (AEW), under her real name Saraya. She is best known for her time in WWE under the name Paige, where she was a three-time Divas Champion, one-time Women's Tag Team Champion and a record 33-time Women's Hardcore Champion. During her time in WWE's developmental system she became the inaugural NXT Women's Champion and would become the only wrestler to simultaneously hold the Divas and NXT Women's Championships.

At the age of 13, Bevis made her debut in 2005 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 WWE and started wrestling within its developmental systems, eventually debuting on WWE's main roster in April 2014. In her debut match on the main roster, she won the Divas Championship for the first time, becoming the second woman in WWE history to win a championship in her debut match and the youngest champion in the title's history at the age of 21.

In 2015 and 2016, Paige went on hiatus due to injury, undergoing neck surgery in October 2016. In December 2017, she suffered an impact injury to the neck at a match, preventing her from competing further. Paige formally retired from in-ring competition in 2018 due to injury, at age 25. Following her retirement, she remained with WWE as a contributor to WWE-related programs and fulfilled managing roles until her contract with the company expired in July 2022. In September 2022, she officially signed with AEW and made her debut for the company at Grand Slam.

Paige ranked No. 1 in Pro Wrestling Illustrated's Female 50 and was named Diva of the Year by Rolling Stone in 2014. In 2018, she received the WWE Year-End Award for General Manager of the Year. In 2012, Channel 4 produced a documentary about Saraya and her family, The Wrestlers: Fighting with My Family, which was adapted into the 2019 feature film Fighting with My Family.
