WWE superstar Paige wants a cameo role on \'Coronation Street\'.

The 28-year-old British wrestler - who had to retire from her in-ring career two years ago due to injury - is clearly a big fan of the ITV soap, and she couldn\'t believe it when the show\'s official Twitter account started following her on social media.

She tweeted: "For all my brits out here.. @itvcorrie just followed me and could NOT be happier, throw me in an episode Corrie Orrieeee (sic)"

It seems a cobbles appearance could be on the cards, after the \'Corrie\' page replied and revealed they\'d been in touch.

The reply read: "Hey! We just sent you a DM on your Insta! (sic)"

Paige - whose life and WWE career was turned into Hollywood blockbuster, \'Fighting With My Family\' - paid tribute to her own wrestling catchphrase when someone suggested she could be the landlady at the Rovers Return.

She quipped: "This is my public house now!"

The star previously opened up about her acting ambitions, and admitted she would love to follow in Dwayne \'The Rock\' Johnson\'s footsteps.

She told Metro.co.uk: "Oh yeah! Well, I can\'t wrestle anymore - so give me a job, Hollywood!"

\'Fighting With My Family\' - which was masterminded by The Rock and Stephen Merchant - told the story of Paige (Florence Pugh) and her loved ones on her journey from the UK independent wrestling scene to the bright lights of WWE.

The movie starred \'Game of Thrones\' actress Lena Heady and \'Hot Fuzz\' actor Nick Frost as her parents Julia and Ricky Knight, while Jack Lowden was cast as her brother Zak.

Vince Vaughn also featured in the film as a fictional WWE recruiter and coach called Hutch Morgan.
