On March 24, 2023, at Sacrifice, after Deonna Purrazzo defeated Gisele Shaw, Steelz returned from hiatus and attacked Jai Vidal and Savannah Evans, who accompanied Shaw to the match, turning face in the process.

On January 13, 2024, at Hard to Kill, Steelz would compete in an Ultimate X match to determine the number one contender for the TNA Knockouts World Championship. However, she was unsuccessful, as it was won by Gisele Shaw. Steelz began a brief feud with Xia Brookside after Hard to Kill, losing to her on the January 18 episode of TNA Impact!, but would get a win over her three weeks later. On the February 29 episode of TNA Impact!, a rubber match was set up where the winner will earn a TNA Knockouts World Championship match at Sacrifice, but the two brawled outside the ring and ended in a double countout. Knockouts World Champion Jordynne Grace would later appear on the entrance ramp, declaring that she would defend her title against both women in a three-way match at the event. At Sacrifice, Steelz failed to win the title when Grace pinned Brookside. Steelz appeared on the March 14 episode of TNA Impact!, saying she never lost to Grace at Sacrifice, and wanted a title shot next week. The following week, she got her title match, but failed to win.

On September 13 at Victory Road, Masha Slamovich defended the TNA Knockouts World Tag Team Championship, alongside Steelz (who took the place of Alisha Edwards due to her not being medically able to compete) against Spitfire. They lost the match and the titles and after the match, Alisha and Steelz turned on Slamovich and attacked her, thus kicking Slamovich out of The System and Steelz joining as an associate.
