Following the match last night on the red brand, the former Damage CTRL member sprayed poison mist in her face. Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW show, Russo suggested that it was ridiculous to still be calling it poison mist in 2025.

"I love the way in 2025 we are still referring to it as the poison mist. Can we not call it the blinding mist, bro? Why is it poison getting spit in your eye? Like can we just not call it the blinding mist? Like seriously, poison," said Vince Russo.
