As per the coronavirus health guidelines, Lana has to go into quarantine for 14 days if she was staying with her mother. There’s no word yet on if WWE will force The Ravishing Russian to quarantine if she’s been around her mom.
At present on TV, she was involved in a storyline with Natalya on the WWE RAW brand. Both of them last appeared during the June 29 episode teasing the formation of a new alliance on the flagship show.
