After setting up Pixel 8 Pro, pixel watch won't connect to network

I had a Google Pixel 6 Pro and then got a pixel watch - all through Verizon. My watch has its own number and number shares with my phone. I got a new phone - Pixel 8 Pro and when I connected my watch it "reset" and now it does not seem to connect to the Verizon network - only bluetooth. I tried replying to a text away from my phone and it said it was offline but it let me use my watch in the same place to Tap Pay.

I went through that. On the app it says "Connect to Verizon network" but then it either does not do anything on my phone or it says download failed

now on the app it says that the esim download is complete and I'll receive notification but nothing happens and it goes back to the screen that says Connect to  Verizon Network. I click that it says Verizon Network setup complete - you'll receive notification and then nothing else happens
