As WWE Evolution approaches on July 13th, rumors are circulating about the possible return of two previously released WWE stars. This Women’s Premium Live Event, set to take place in Atlanta, will feature notable matches, including IYO Sky defending the Women’s World Championship against Rhea Ripley.
Wrestlevotes Radio from Wrestlevinge reports that WWE might be considering bringing back the former female tag team champions, the IIconics. Behind the scenes, there’s been talk about reviving the team for upcoming shows. Peyton Royce and Billie Kay, who were released from WWE in April 2021, later competed in TNA Wrestling under the name Inspiration.
Currently known as Cassie Lee and Jessica McKay, the former WWE Women’s Tag Team champions hold the Impact Knockouts World Tag Team Championship titles. While discussions about their WWE return are ongoing, no official announcement has been made yet. The IIconics initially debuted on WWE NXT TV in October 2016 and moved to the main roster in April 2018 under the same tag team name.
The duo left TNA Wrestling (also known as Impact Wrestling) in April 2022, taking an indefinite break from in-ring competition. However, they made a comeback in June 2025, and McKay recently described returning to WWE as a “complete circle moment.”
(Fan Take) This potential return of the IIconics is exciting news for WWE fans as it brings back a beloved and talented tag team to the women’s division, possibly shaking up the tag team scene. Their comeback could inject fresh energy into WWE storylines and inspire a resurgence in fan interest around the women’s tag team division.
