Despite dominating and capturing the AEW Women's World Championship at the All In event in August 2023, Saraya announced a hiatus late in 2024 to pursue personal projects.
How Saraya wants WWE fans to remember her?
In a candid conversation with WrestleZone managing editor Bill Pritchard, Saraya promoted her newly released memoir, "
Hell in Boots: Clawing My Way Through Nine Lives

I used to wrestle, dude. Like, I used to wrestle wrestle. I think I got a little scared subconsciously, and I didn't get to do what I know that I can do. So, yeah, I have to adjust a few things. But I want to get back in the swing of things.'
Saraya on 'Hell In Boots', her in-ring future, WWE, Friends
During the conversation, Saraya was asked how does want to be remembered by her fans. Is there a match or moment that stands out in her mind? To this, she responded, 'So, moment… Of course, my championship wins.
All… Yes! 100% my championship wins. Storyline-wise, I loved my 'Frenemies' thing and that's kind of the biggest thing that people kind of remember from my era, is Frenemies with AJ Lee and stuff."
She further added, 'I just want to be remembered [as] someone that kind of helped usher in the Women's Revolution. And people had their opinions on that, of who they thought started it, but, whatever. I just know that I was a part of a group that lit the match,' she noted.
'I want to be remembered for that.'

Can Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR's 'War 2' break the opening day record set by 'War'?
Ayan Mukerji's 'War 2,' part of the Spy Universe with Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR, saw a strong opening with ₹32.21 crore in advance bookings. However, reviews may hinder its ability to surpass the original 'War's' ₹53.35 crore debut. Rajinikanth's 'Coolie' also released, earning ₹46 crore in advance booking and is expected to mint nearly ₹60 crore. War 2 directed by Ayan Mukerji was the most talked about film of the year. It had everything going for it from the strong legacy of Pathan and Tiger in the Spy Universe to star power of Hrithik Roshan , Jr NTR and Kiara Advani and backing of a huge production house. The film also managed a huge advance booking of Rs 32.21 crore for its opening day but as the reviews began to come out the film has an uphill task to even match the numbers of its predecessor War which starred Tiger Shroff along with Hrithik Roshan and was directed by Siddharth Anand . According to the advance booking figures, War 2 has raked in an advance booking gross of Rs 20.57 crore from 7.52 lakh tickets sold across India and post including block booking sale the number jumps to Rs 32.21 crore, showing a solid base for opening day collections. Till 2 PM the film has already minted about Rs 17.07 crore. War (2019) set a very high benchmark with an opening day of ₹53.35 crore across languages, including Rs 51.60 crore in Hindi alone. That debut remains the second-highest opening day in the YRF Spy Universe, behind Shah Rukh Khan led Pathaan's Rs 57 crore record. Given the advance trends, War 2 may find it challenging to breach the Rs 50 crore mark on day 1. On the other hand Rajinikanth's Coolie which also released today hasn't got a very favourable review but the hype of the film is so strong that in advance booking itself it crossed Rs 46 crore mark and is expected to mint nearly Rs 60 crore before the end of the day. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Zaporizhzhia: Unsold Sofas Prices May Surprise You (Prices May Surprise You) Sofas | Search Ads Search Now Undo The film till 2 PM has earned nearly Rs 28.33 crore and now all depends on afternoon, evening and night on the spot ticketing for the film to sail through. If opening day trends continue along the trajectory of the current advance bookings, War 2 could realistically land in the Rs 45–48 crore range on day one. That would place it ahead of Tiger 3's Rs 44.50 crore debut, making it the third-biggest opening day in the Spy Universe behind only Pathaan and War. The film's ultimate box office fate will depend on word-of-mouth and its performance over the extended weekend. With two megastars Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR joining forces for the first time, War 2 has a strong chance of building momentum beyond opening day, especially in North India and the Telugu if the fails to build momentum then it would give chance to Saiyaara and Mahavatar Narsimha to extend their run at the box office and climb up the box office ladder.
