Ahead of the WWE Draft at the Heritage Bank Center, an injured WWE Superstar has stirred up mischief by swiping a title. Set to unfold during SmackDown tonight and RAW next Monday, the Draft has already sparked intrigue.
NXT’s Cora Jade, sidelined with a torn ACL since January, seems ready for the Draft excitement. In a playful stunt, she posted a video on her Instagram story, humorously absconding with Perez’s NXT Women’s Championship.
However, Perez swiftly caught wind of Jade’s antics and reclaimed her title. Undeterred, Jade took to her Instagram story once more, echoing Bayley’s sentiments, advocating respect for the injured.
Meanwhile, reigning NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez, who clinched the title by triumphing over Lyra Valkyria at Stand & Deliver during WrestleMania XL weekend, has her sights set on future challenges.
In an exclusive interview last July with Wrestling’s Riju Dasgupta, Perez expressed her aspiration to wrestle Cora Jade, envisioning a potential headline bout at WrestleMania.
Perez emphasized the significance of NXT’s rising stars, asserting their role as the company’s future. With both Perez and Jade poised for success as WWE Superstars, the prospect of surprise call-ups from NXT during the Draft adds an extra layer of anticipation to the proceedings.
