According to Fightful Select, the backstage reaction to Lee’s comeback was described as “very positive,” with many within WWE feeling she delivered a strong performance.

The report also highlighted that Becky Lynch received significant praise for her role in the match.

A veteran in the company noted that Lynch has consistently helped guide talent returning from long absences and did the same with Lee, who was wrestling her first match since May 2015.
