Blake Monroe, formerly known as Mariah May, is set to make her official WWE debut match at the upcoming Great American Bash event. Having transitioned from AEW, where she was a women’s world champion, Mariah signed with WWE last month and appeared for the first time on the June 3rd episode of NXT under her new ring name, Blake Monroe.
She recently showcased her in-ring skills at a live NXT event alongside Rainey Reed. On a recent NXT broadcast, Jordynne Grace confronted Jacy Jayne about their upcoming NXT Women’s Championship match at Evolution but was interrupted by the Deadly Influence faction and Jacy Jayne herself. Blake Monroe stepped in to assist Jordynne, fighting off the trio. The segment concluded with NXT General Manager Ava announcing that Jacy Jayne and Fallon Henley will team up with Jordynne Grace and Blake Monroe at the Great American Bash.
Fan Take: Blake Monroe’s arrival brings fresh energy and new rivalries to NXT, a critical asset for maintaining excitement in WWE’s women’s division. Her AEW background and championship pedigree could shake up the scene, offering fans thrilling new matches and storylines.
