The WWE Women's Revolution reached its newest heights in the year 2015 when WWE called up several NXT Superstars to the main roster. This promotion of Superstars led to the formation of a memorable yet short-lived women's faction, Team PCB.

The faction comprised Charlotte, Becky Lynch, and Paige. However, after Charlotte Flair became the new Divas Champion, Paige turned on the group and brutalized both Charlotte and Becky. All these events led to a highly anticipated match between Charlotte and Paige at Survivor Series 2015. During the contract signing of this bout, Paige and Charlotte traded some heated words.

But Paige's outrageous comment about Charlotte's younger brother Reid Flair, unfortunately, became the infamous highlight of this segment. After Charlotte declared herself as part of a 'Family of Fighters', Paige made fun of Charlotte's brother, who passed away in 2013 due to a drug overdose.

She said that her little brother didn't have much fight in him, clearly mocking his helplessness in overcoming drug addiction. It remains one of the most controversial WWE segments of the modern era. Paige herself didn't look very comfortable during the delivery of the line. WWE's strategy of making this rivalry more personal drew some heat from the fans. It turned Paige into one of the most genuinely hated Superstars for a while.
