"This weekend was so much fun. For the first time ever Beth and I had interaction on screen for WWE. The best stuff happens when you can tell the performers are having fun, and Beth and I are having a blast. This month will probably be the first and last time you see us in this capacity, and I’m so thankful we get the opportunity," - Edge said
Phoenix played roles in Edge's feuds with Randy Orton and Seth Rollins, but this is the first time Pheonix has inserted herself as an active competitor..
The Royal Rumble will mark Beth Phoenix's first match in WWE since 2020
Beth Phoenix's first run with WWE came to a close in 2012. 5 years later The Glamazon returned to the company to be inducted into the Hall of Fame and compete on a part-time basis. She entered the 2019 and 2020 Women's Royal Rumble matches and went after the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships along side Natalya.
Phoenix also began showcasing her abilities on the mic, as she began doing guest commentary spots for various pay-per-views and high profile matches. Phoenix became a full-time commentator for the NXT brand in 2019. She held the position until last month when she announced her departure.
