Blake Monroe arrived in WWE with undeniable glamour, instantly becoming one of the most talked-about debuts in NXT history. And while the world has seen her in-ring excellence in AEW, Monroe’s debut WWE outing has been made official. During this week’s episode of NXT, Jordynne Grace was ambushed by The Fatal Influence ahead of her upcoming title clash with Jacy Jayne. But in a surprising turn of events, Blake Monroe stormed the ring to confront Jayne and her allies.

Wasting no time, Monroe took out Fallon Henley and then Jayne, clearing the ring in the process. However, moments later, NXT GM Ava appeared on the ramp to make a major announcement. She revealed that at the Great American Bash on July 12 in Atlanta, Grace will team up with Monroe to take on The Fatal Influence members Jayne and Henley.

Although she has made her in-ring debut in the promotion against Lainey Reid during an NXT live event, Monroe’s first-ever televised WWE outing is set in stone. And the seeds of this match-up were sown as the former AEW standout made her debut.

Two weeks ago, The Fatal Influence launched a brutal attack on Blake Monroe following her NXT contract signing. In a bold statement, they slammed the former AEW star through a table, claiming NXT as their territory. However, Monroe seems determined to make NXT her own, and in that mission, former TNA Knockouts Champion Jordynne Grace is now set to stand by her side.

Since Monroe’s debut last month, fans have been eagerly anticipating her televised in-ring debut in WWE. Many believed she would be featured on the card for Evolution 2 next month. However, that won’t be the case. As of now, WWE is putting the former AEW Women’s World Champion in the NXT Women’s Title picture. It will be interesting to see what the promotion has in store for her moving forward. But for now, her association with Grace seems to be the next step.

Blake Monroe and Jordynne Grace are set to join forces next week at the Great American Bash. Known for her lone wolf persona during her AEW stint, The Glamour has typically preferred to walk alone. However, in a surprising turn, Monroe has found an ally in NXT. Their unexpected partnership has been buzzing online, and fans have even given the duo a name that’s quickly gaining traction.

Taking to X, a fan dubbed the duo “Grace and Glamour”—a name that quickly caught Monroe’s attention. Wasting no time, the 26-year-old reacted to the post, affirming that the name perfectly fits the dynamic between her and Grace. The post has since been gaining significant traction on social media, with fans rallying behind the newly formed powerhouse team.

Meanwhile, at Evolution, Jordynne Grace is set to challenge Jacy Jayne for the NXT Women’s Championship. With high stakes on the line, it will be interesting to see if Monroe plays a role in the outcome. Notably, Monroe has also made it clear that she has her sights set on the NXT Women’s Title, adding another layer of intrigue to the title picture.

In her YouTube vlog, the former AEW star revealed that joining WWE had always been a lifelong dream. She shared that she began her wrestling training with the goal of one day signing with the Stamford-based promotion. Now that she’s officially part of WWE, Monroe called it the biggest achievement of her career.

If you’ve followed my channel and followed me, you’ll know that WWE was a huge goal of mine. Since I was a little kid, all I wanted to do was be a WWE Superstar, be a wrestler, that’s why I started training, to be in WWE. To be able to sit here and say at 26 years old that I am a WWE Superstar is the greatest achievement of my life.

A few years ago, the 26-year-old took part in WWE tryouts but was unsuccessful in securing a spot. Undeterred, she went on to compete in Stardom and later All Elite Wrestling, where she built a strong reputation and became one of the top names in women’s wrestling.
