Alicia Fox is returning to the ring.
On Wednesday, Mickie James appeared on Gabby AF to reveal the full card for her upcoming HER event in collaboration with Starrcast and Oceania Pro Wrestling. Among the announcements was the reveal that “Hardcore Country” herself will lace up her boots to face a returning Vix Crow, formerly known as Alicia Fox in WWE.
Fox has been a free agent for nearly a year and has teased an in-ring return in that time. Her last two matches included the 2021 and 2022 women’s Royal Rumble matches. Prior to that, she had a handful of televised WWE matches in 2019.
Fox and James shared the ring a number of times in WWE, including a run as a tag team in 2018. Their last singles match together took place in October 2009.
Starrcast and Oceania Pro Wrestling will team up for Starrcast Downunder in Ballarat, Victoria, on April 11 through 14. HER is scheduled for Friday, April 12.

“It was big motivation for me”
Following her departure from WWE, Alicia Fox (now known as Vix Crow) reached out to wrestling veteran Booker T about potentially knocking off some of her ring rust at his Reality of Wrestling school. After their initial contact, the duo also worked out an agreement for Fox to appear at ROW’s Summer of Champions event in July 2023.
During her outing there, Fox met several fans as well as the talent of Reality of Wrestling. In a recent interview with WrestleZone’s Ella Jay, ROW’s Interim Diamonds Champion Mia Friday recalled her delightful experience of meeting the former WWE Divas Champion at the event.
“[Fox] was so sweet,” Friday said. “Me and all the girls, we were all lined up, so nervous when she first walked in. We were just blown away at how sweet she was. She was just being a locker room mom, just giving us advice in general [about] making it into the business and everything. Was just so helpful.”
“She was like ‘I need to get a picture with you.’ I was like ‘With me?’ So, it was so great to be around her, She was just another wrestler that I grew up watching, and then to share a locker room with her, it was big motivation for me. I’m like ‘Okay, I gotta keep going. I can see something happening one day.’”
