For now, all that is known is that she is backstage ahead of the live show and Friday\u2019s additional television tapings.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringsidenews.com\/zoey-stark-released-wwe-while-still-out-action-injury\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Serrano was released from WWE in April 2026 <\/a>after five years with the company. Her run included winning the NXT Women\u2019s Tag Team Championship with IYO SKY, competing in multiple Royal Rumble matches and working alongside Trish Stratus and Shayna Baszler on the main roster.<\/p>\n<p>This would not be Serrano\u2019s first trip through TNA. Before signing with WWE, she competed for the company as Lacey Ryan in 2020 and challenged Jordynne Grace for the Knockouts World Championship. She also faced Kiera Hogan during that short run.<\/p>\n<p>Serrano recently revealed that she received offers from TNA and WWE around the same time before ultimately choosing WWE. Her backstage presence now immediately raises questions about whether the two sides could be discussing unfinished business.<\/p>\n<p>Serrano being backstage does not guarantee that fans will see her during the broadcast, but a former WWE star with history in TNA showing up on the night of a live episode is going to<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tShare<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tSend This Story To Your Friends\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringsidenews.com\/wwe-news\/\" title=\"Read all WWE News\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWWE News\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Steve Carrier\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/avatar_user_1_1704158183-96x96.jpg\"  class=\"avatar avatar-96 photo lazyload\" height=\"96\" width=\"96\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 96px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 96\/96;\" data-\/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>Steve Carrier is the founder of Ringside News and has been reporting on pro wrestling since 1997.
