The 49-year-old spent the following years moving between a few promotions before signing with AEW in August 2019. She made her AEW in-ring debut in July 2020 against Big Swole in a losing effort.
In an interview with Sunday Night’s Main Event, AEW Women's World Champion Britt Baker revealed that Cody Rhodes was behind Rebel's return to the ring.
"When the pandemic first started, we had to do a lot of vignettes at home. Tony Khan had the idea to start doing Rules of Being a Role Model, so we were filming in the dental office. Rebel, who was a makeup artist for AEW, she was on the set to do my hair and makeup. Then, it was Cody who wrote her into the script and said, 'Hey, let’s play around with it and call her Reba,'" Baker said.
Last Sunday, Rebel participated in the Casino Battle Royale match at AEW All Out.
