After the loss at the Showcase of the Immortals, AJ indicated that she did not view the moment as a definitive farewell, though she also made it clear that she did not know when she would appear in WWE again.
She returned to the company in September 2025 after a decade away from the ring and was quickly placed into a major rivalry with Becky Lynch.
For now, AJ is expected to remain off WWE’s weekly shows, at least until the company finds a new creative direction for her.
