Lacey Lane made her AEW debut this week, appearing during Dynamite‘s special Title Tuesday episode, but it wasn’t without some online controversy.
Lane’s debut came in a match against Mercedes Moné, in a losing effort. After the match, though, Lane took to social media to address some criticisms.
Fans were quick to note that Lane’s wrestling name closely resembles that of NXT star Jacy Jayne. However, Lane was quick to show a screenshot of her adopting the name in 2018, and joked that the information was for “idiots” who didn’t know.
Lacey Lane, who also performed under the name Kayden Carter from 2018 to 2025, appears this week in AEW after being released from WWE in May. During her time in NXT, Lane was the longest-reigning NXT Women’s Tag Team Champion and a one-time WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion. She won both titles with Katana Chance.
While Lane performed for Ring of Honor recently, her contract status with both companies is currently unknown.
