Saraya explains why she and The Outcasts use green spray paint in AEW.
Saraya, Toni Storm, and Ruby Soho have recently formed The Outcasts in AEW. Specifically targeting AEW's homegrown talent, a calling card of the trio is tagging their adversaries with lime green spray paint.
Speaking about the use of spray paint in an interview with Josh Martinez on the Superstar Crossover podcast, Saraya noted that it is, in fact, a way to pay homage to the nWo, and says that lime green is a fun and vibrant color to use, which also has nods to D-Generation X.
"Honestly, I don't know. I just felt like I love the nWo and it is a nod to them. People think we just randomly ripped them off. No, we're actually inspired by them. It's a whole different story. We're very open about how inspired we are by them," she said, "I love lime green. It's so iconic. You had DX and stuff like that too, it was awesome. Then you know, The Bellas kind of did the spray paint thing with me, too."
Furthermore, Saraya admitted that she and the other group members tried to drop hints about Ruby joining the group at AEW Revolution.
"Lime green is a fun, bright color; it's a safe color to use," she added. "We were eventually gonna go with Ruby. So it's kind of like a nod to her hair color as well. I just want to say for everyone, like when it comes to the Triple Threat [at AEW Revolution], we tried to give these little tiny, subtle hints when we were going in there. Toni had the glittery lipstick, and then Ruby had the red glitter eyeshadow to match it. Then I wore the black and green to match Ruby's hair, which was green too and then and then she put on the plaid shirt, which is, I always wear the plaid shirt. So we tried to like throw in little ideas of little hints there."
