he was working as guest referee. One week later on SmackDown they lost their first match as team (dubbing themselves "The Slayers"). The Slayers won their first match as a team on the September 2 episode of Main Event. At Survivor Series, Rae participated in an elimination tag team match, where she was eliminated by Emma before her team lost the match. In January 2015, The Slayers quietly disbanded when Layla underwent surgery. Upon the release of Rae's first film The Marine 4: Moving Target in April, she was disrespected by her co-star The Miz, and as a result, she allied herself with Miz's enemy, Damien Sandow. On the April 20 episode of Raw, Rae helped Miz win a match against Sandow, having been working with Miz from the start. In June, Rae became involved with Rusev's storyline with his former manager Lana and Ziggler, in which Rae formed an on-screen relationship with Rusev. After weeks of confrontation, Rusev faced Ziggler at SummerSlam, which ended in a double countout due interference from both Lana and Rae. In September, Rae attempted to sabotage Ziggler and Lana's relationship, but the storyline was abruptly dropped. After Rusev refused Rae's marriage proposal, Rusev's real-life engagement to Lana was revealed, leading to Rae confronting Rusev and ending their association on the October 12 episode of Raw. Rae gained revenge over Rusev on the following episode of SmackDown when she served as the guest referee for his match against Ziggler; she helped Ziggler. On the October 22 episode of SmackDown, during a Miz TV segment between Rae and Ziggler, she introduced the debuting Tyler Breeze as her "new man", and subsequently began managing him. However, during the final SmackDown of 2015, Rae and Breeze announced that they amicably decided to go their separate ways. Rae returned to in-ring action in mid-February 2016 competing in various matches, where she was on the losing side. In late March, Rae allied herself with Team B.A.D. (Naomi and Tamina), Emma and Lana, leading to a tag team match on the WrestleMania 32 pre show, which Rae's team lost. On July 19, Rae was drafted to Raw as part of the 2016 WWE draft. However, she never appeared for the brand due to injuries. After over a year of inactivity, Rae was officially released from her WWE contract on October 29, 2017.
