Saraya isn’t sure what her in-ring future holds, but she hopes that pro wrestling finds an important place in her life once more. The three-time women’s world champion spoke with WrestleZone Managing Editor Bill Pritchard to promote her new book, Hell in Boots: Clawing My Way Through Nine Lives. Saraya announced she was leaving AEW last month, which was a mutual decision by both sides. Now, she wants to get her outside interests in order over the next year, but also plans to dedicate herself to pro wrestling training. Saraya hopes to train with Natalya and remind everyone just how great she can be in the ring. A defining characteristic of Saraya’s journey is her ability to admit her own vulnerabilities. She recognizes that her comeback was not without its challenges, and she is willing to confront the doubts and fears that held her back. By acknowledging these weaknesses, Saraya is empowering herself to move forward and redefine her approach to pro wrestling. Saraya believes that some of her issues during her comeback were linked to being “a little scared subconsciously,” which limited her ability to do the things she knows she is capable of. She hopes to overcome these fears by taking a step outside of the wrestling world and focusing on her outside interests. By doing so, she can regain her confidence and rebuild her foundation.

“I feel like I need to get back in the swing of how I used to be. And I feel like I didn’t really get to showcase that as much as I wanted. And maybe it is just in my head that I wasn’t ready or whatever it is. It’s crazy… It’s crazy to come back from such a crazy injury.”
