#2 Paige vs Lana

Paige made her way to the main roster on the RAW after WrestleMania 30 and won the Divas title in the process. A year later, Paige got into a rivalry with Charlotte Flair and things became personal very quickly. Paige mentioned Flair's brother Reid who had passed away in 2013.

Lana, who wasn't an active wrestler at the time, targeted Paige on Twitter for her comments about Reid in a tweet that was later deleted. But this was enough for a Twitter feud to kick off and it led to the two women having an intense exchange.

I actually am a open book of honesty, I apologize when I'm wrong & take responsibility for my actions. Nice try https://t.co/xZ8KAXInmH

At the time, Lana was still playing the role of a manager and hadn't stepped foot in the ring. It would be another year before Lana would get into the ring and compete in matches.

For that brief period in 2016-18, Lana and Paige were both active wrestlers but this feud was never brought up and a match between the two didn't happen at any point. Paige retired from active competition on the RAW after WrestleMania 34.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
