A former WWE star has opened up, revealing the truth about making their in-ring singles return after five years away from competition.

Although Vix Crow (fka Alicia Fox in WWE) was in the 2021 and 2022 Royal Rumbles, she hadn’t had a singles match since 2019.

Making the return against Mickie James at the latter’s HER event in Australia, the former Alicia Fox spoke to Ring the Belle about the return.

She said:

“Oh jeez, every time I talk about wrestling, I get a little blushy but with this situation, Mickie (James) is so funny, right? She’s hilarious and it started with a couple of texts, like a little drip, drip text and it was very subtle and then one day, we had a conversation. I think she just asked me, ‘You’re done with wrestling?’ And I’m like, ‘Oh, am I done with wrestling?’

“It’s like, ‘Well I don’t know. I just wanna get in the ring and knock off some ring rust’ and so we kind of started talking and talking and talking and then she asked if she could book me for Australia…

“And then it started to slowly come back in that it’s gonna be her show, her promotion and I was so forever proud of her and then I just started to feel like, oh my God, this is actually my time to shine. I know, it sounds so weird to say that. I don’t wanna sound cocky.

“But I think I was just honestly kind of frightened. I was frightened, you know? Because I was kind of frightened it might be like before, in that I just couldn’t stomach that.”

Vix Crow was victorious in the effort, beating Mickie James in the match.
