It was revealed in recent weeks that Cassie Lee & Jessie McKay of The IInspiration tag team (formerly known as the IIconics in WWE) had officially parted ways with TNA and were now free agents, with the contracts expiring for the former TNA Knockouts Tag Team Champions. 

The pair have been no strangers to lengthy hiatuses from professional wrestling in the past, but there could be a chance that fans see the two sooner rather than later in the ring. According to Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, there is current talk that The IInspiration could be heading to AEW, though there is no current indication of how far or advanced these talks might be. 

Prior to their TNA exit, The IInspiration did have a cameo back in NXT last year thanks to the WWE-TNA working relationship, plus they were reportedly considered for inclusion at the 2025 Evolution PLE, though this never came to fruition. Following the end of their TNA deals, there was some speculation of a WWE return, but any significant talk on this front has been quiet.
