Blake Monroe has made her intentions known and now has officially turned heel during the Evolution Premium Live Event. She was in the corner of Jordynne Grace as she competed for the WWE NXT Women’s Championship against Jacy Jayne. Let’s take a closer look at what this means for the WWE NXT Women’s Division and what Blake Monroe being a heel does for the top of the card.
Blake Monroe Turns Heel at WWE Evolution
Blake Monroe has only made one appearance in the ring and teamed with Jordynne Grace in a win against Fallon Henley and Jacy Jayne during WWE NXT The Great American Bash. Ahead of Sunday’s match between Grace and Jayne, Grace knew Fatal Influence would be ringside, so she asked Blake Monroe to be in her corner. Monroe would not be too involved throughout the match, but with the WWE NXT Women’s Title in her hands, Grace would be thrown into the ropes and Monroe would hit her in the back with the championship belt.
Jayne would hit her Rolling Encore finisher to get the pin and retain her championship. Now, it appears Blake Monroe vs. Jordynne Grace will be a major match in the not-so-distant future on WWE NXT. Monroe will now show her talents on the brand and immediately jumps to being one of the main players for the top women’s prize in WWE NXT. With Monroe not aligning herself with Fatal Influence, this shows she is a lone woman and can immediately elevate her character while showcasing her abilities inside the ring.
Jordynne Grace vs. Blake Monroe could headline a WWE NXT Premium Live Event or if they want to make a massive match for the weekly television show, this could be a major match. It will be interesting to see how she looks in potentially her first televised singles match since leaving AEW.
