As expected, Mickie James made her SmackDown LIVE debut on Tuesday night’s episode.
James, who made her WWE return against Asuka at the NXT TakeOver: Toronto special this past November, officially returned to the WWE main roster on Tuesday night’s SmackDown LIVE show in Memphis, Tennessee.
It was revealed on this week’s blue brand show that James was actually the person behind the mask as La Luchadora in recent weeks.
Featured below via WWE’s official Twitter page are some clips and photos that show La Luchadora unmasked and revealed to be Mickie James during the SmackDown LIVE Women’s Championship Steel Cage Match between current title-holder Alexa Bliss and former champion Becky Lynch.
