In April 2024, Soho took time away from AEW owing to her legitimate pregnancy.
Professional wrestling persona
On June 18, 2021, during an interview on Wrestling Perspective Podcast, Prange discussed how she would like to keep the Ruby name for her character and would not be returning to her Heidi Lovelace ring name as she disliked that name, and it was never her idea to begin with. She said she originally took the Ruby name from the Rancid song "Ruby Soho", however, WWE owns the rights to the Ruby Riott ring name so she could no longer use it. It was then suggested by Rancid's Lars Fredriksen, who is one of the hosts of the podcast, that she should use the ring name Ruby Soho and assured her that he could also have the song cleared legally for her to use as her entrance theme. The name change was confirmed via a post on Prange's Instagram account.

Riott made her video game debut in WWE 2K18 as a downloadable character, and appeared in the succeeding titles WWE 2K19 and WWE 2K20. She appears as a downloadable character in the title WWE 2K Battlegrounds. Ruby Soho appears in AEW Fight Forever.
