With a win over Lynch, Lee is closer than ever to the Women's Intercontinental Title. However, Lee hasn't been seen on TV since the Indianapolis event.

However, for the past few weeks, the couple has been struggling a bit.Firstly, they lost their mixed tag team match against Punk and Lee, and now Seth Rollins is worried about possibly losing to Cody Rhodes again ahead of their bout at Crown Jewel 2025.
