Rae was previously affiliated with AEW and even competed at its inaugural pay-per-view, Double or Nothing, in 2019. She was in a tag team match alongside Nyla Rose as they took on Britt Baker and Awesome Kong. She also has history with the Stamford-based promotion, as she made a brief appearance at its Main Event show in 2022, taking on Dana Brooke.

Rae is shown at the 2:13 to 2:47 time stamp in the video below.
