"It's not even fair" – Former Divas Champion on WWE calling her a "legend"
Dozens of former WWE Superstars appeared on a reunion episode of RAW on July 22, 2019. Alicia Fox, who was still an active roster member at the time, recently questioned why she was listed as a "legend" on the show.
In April, Fox became a free agent after her 17-year WWE stint ended. The 34-year-old has been outspoken about the way she was treated in her last few years with the company. She was particularly frustrated about not receiving a statement of support following her departure.
On Ring the Belle, Fox revealed she was just as confused as everyone else when she was among the RAW Reunion legends:
"One day, a fan tweeted me a picture of that legends shirt, and it had my little head on there (…) I was like, 'Why is my head on that shirt? You're gonna legend me up?' It's not even fair. I got a load of phone calls like, 'Are you retired?' I'm like, 'I've got my first merch!'" [31:38 – 31:56]
Fox competed in more than 1,000 matches before the RAW Reunion episode. After the show, she only made two more in-ring appearances in Royal Rumbles before leaving the company.

Fox recalled how Guerrero was responsible for her call-up from WWE's Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW) developmental system:
"Well, it's funny because Vickie Guerrero really did a sister good because the office asked her, 'Is there anyone that you would wanna see from developmental come and be a part of your segment?' and she chose my character name." [6:32 – 6:49]
The former Divas Champion also addressed speculation that she received backstage heat after injuring Beth Phoenix in 2011.
