She lost the title to Alexa Thatcher on August 17, but regained it the next day. On December 22, at her retirement show, Alicia lost the WSU Championship to Tammy Lynn Sytch.
Alicia made a surprise return at Uncensored Rumble II as she was announced as the new tag team partner of Brooke Carter, replacing Brooke's former partner, Miss April, who recently signed a WWE developmental deal. Alicia and Brooke went on to defeat Jessicka Havok and Hailey Hatred to become the new WSU Tag Team Champions.

Later in the night, Alicia and Brooke Carter lost the tag team titles to Jessicka Havok and Hailey Hatred. On October 3, Alicia and Brooke Carter lost the re-match for the WSU Tag Team Titles. After the match, Brooke Carter turned into a villainess by becoming the evil Brittney Savage, brutally attacking Alicia and aligning with Rick Cataldo.
