Now is also a pretty perfect time to call up Paige. Have her debut just after Payback, where Fandango wins the IC Title from Barrett by pinning The Miz after a Flying Leg Drop. Barrett is furious and obviously wants a one-on-one match with Fandango.
Paige debuts and defeats some heel in her first match. How about an arrogant Nikki Bella? Paige rolls her up after The Bellas get cocky and after the match the twins attack Paige and Natalya runs to the ring and clears them off, being a random face Diva (who has a problem with The Bellas mocking her on her birthday). On a match taped for Total Divas, Natalya & Paige defeat The Bellas when Natalya locks in a Sharpshooter on one of the girls and Paige intercepts the other and locks her in a modified Texas cloverleaf.
Paige catches the eye of Wade Barrett who says it's great to see a Norwich girl kicking some butt in the WWE. Paige thanks Wade and they go their separate ways. Fandango and Summer Rae then bump into Paige and Summer calls Paige "pasty" or something like that. Summer then ends up in the bad books with Paige and the two fight a few times and that involves Fandango and Barrett. Eventually SummerSlam rolls around and Paige is in the corner of Barrett as he squares off with Fandango for the Intercontinental Title. Paige and Summer brawl and in the chaos, Barrett nails Fandango with a Bullhammer and becomes a four-time Intercontinental Champion and wins his first title as a babyface. Wade and Paige celebrate in the ring and maybe even have an odd romantic moment together where Wade feels bad because of his age over the young girl. "What would you want with a piece of human garbage like me anyway?" Paige goes on to serve as some sort of redemption for the "beast" within Wade Barrett.
