- Above is video of Mike Rome talking to Ember Moon and RAW Women's Champion Nia Jax after their win over Mickie James and Alexa Bliss on RAW.

Regarding her call-up from WWE NXT, Moon says it's like a dream come true and she's just excited to start a new path here on RAW.

Paige retires from in-ring competition
Citing medical reasons, Paige made the difficult decision to retire from in-ring competition during the April 9 edition of Monday Night Raw after four years in WWE.
In an emotional address, the brave Superstar thanked Daniel Bryan for his inspiration, WWE Hall of Famer Edge for showing her there is life after sports-entertainment, the WWE Universe for their support and WWE for allowing her to do what she loves to do.
