Blake Monroe, formerly known as Mariah May, recently made her debut in WWE NXT and is already forming new on-screen alliances. Monroe’s debut match took place at NXT The Great American Bash on July 12th, where she began teaming up with Jordynne Grace. On the July 1st episode of WWE NXT, Monroe came to Grace’s aid, saving her from an attack by Jacy Jayne and Fatal Impact. This teamwork was further highlighted in the scheduled match of Grace & Monroe versus Jayne & Fallon Henley at the Great American Bash, prompting Monroe to share her enthusiasm about her new alliances, stating, “I’m really good at making friends #GlamandGuns,” alongside a photo of herself flexing in the NXT ring.
Monroe revealed that she never anticipated signing with WWE after previously joining AEW in November 2023, where she competed until May. She holds the title of former AEW Women’s World Champion and won the Women’s Owen Hart Cup in 2024. Recently, Monroe also mentioned approaching WWE’s store with an idea to sell “Bas Water Bliss,” showing her innovative spirit to push boundaries within the industry.
Fan Take: Blake Monroe’s move to WWE and quick formation of alliances highlight a promising new chapter not only for her career but for WWE’s women’s division as a whole. This fresh talent and dynamic storytelling could energize fans and add exciting new layers to WWE programming, making it a development worth watching closely.
