Candice LeRae Interferes on SmackDown After Over a Month Off TV

Candice LeRae Interferes on SmackDown After Over a Month Off TV

Fans have been wondering where Candice LeRae has been—and now they have their answer.

After over a month off WWE television, LeRae returned in shocking fashion during the May 23, 2025 episode of SmackDown, helping Tommaso Ciampa pick up a controversial win over TNA’s Chris Sabin.

In a hard-fought match that saw Ciampa and Sabin go back and forth, things took a dramatic turn late in the contest. Sabin had just hit a tornado DDT and climbed the ropes looking to finish Ciampa off. That’s when LeRae made her surprise return. Out of nowhere, she appeared at ringside and yanked Sabin throat-first onto the top rope, giving Ciampa the perfect opening.

Ciampa, ever the opportunist, sprinted in with a running knee strike to the head and scored the three-count.

LeRae hadn’t been seen since April 11 when she lost the WWE Women’s Speed Title to Sol Ruca in under five minutes. Her absence left fans wondering about her future, but tonight’s interference shows she’s not done yet—and she may now be in Ciampa and Gargano’s corner going forward.

The assist also raises serious questions about her direction. Is this a full-blown heel turn? Is she aligning with #DIY officially? And more importantly, what does this mean for Chris Sabin, who was closing in on a win before the interference?

Candice LeRae is back, and she’s already making an impact—whether fans like it or not.

Candice LeRae Threatens to End Tag Team With Indi Hartwell After 3/25 WWE RAW

Candice LeRae has been undergoing a major shift in her character in the past few weeks and it took a whole new level after RAW this week, as she threatened to end her tag team with Indie Hartwell.

A couple of weeks ago on RAW, Maxxine Dupri faced criticism from Candice LeRae during tag team match, making her reconsider her wrestling career. LeRae questioned Dupri’s place in WWE, mentioning fan criticism and even invoking Dupri’s deceased brother.

Even after Monday Night RAW last week, Candice LeRae told Maxxine Dupri that she was simply rotten at professional wrestling. During this week’s RAW, LeRae feigned an injury against Ivy Nile and used that to pick up a win.

Following the conclusion of Monday Night RAW, Indie Hartwell and Candice LeRae were spotted talking in a WWE digital exclusive.

Indi Hartwell: ”No Candice no, what’s gotten into you? I don’t like the way you’re doing things. Faking an injury?”

Candice LeRae: ”You know what, Katana tried to fake an injury last week, she just wasn’t good at it.”

Indi Hartwell: ‘‘She was actually hurt.”

Candice LeRae: ‘‘You know what? You wanna be a loser, then you can do things the way we used to, but if you don’t wanna do things my way, then you can find a new partner.”

Indi Hartwell: ‘‘Are you serious?’

We will have to wait and see how WWE will continue to book Candice LeRae in the coming weeks, as they are certainly invested in her current heel character for good reason.
