Cora Jade Sidelined with a Torn ACL – A significant setback has befallen WWE star Cora Jade, as she recently suffered a serious knee injury during a match against Lyra Valkyria for the Women’s Title at an NXT live event. The injury was severe enough to halt the match, and internal concerns initially pointed towards a potential torn ACL.
Cora Jade, who joined NXT in 2021, has been prominently featured as a key figure in the NXT women’s division. Her character arc included a transition from a babyface star to a heel, marked by an attack on Roxanne Perez. Notably, Jade had only returned to NXT TV a month ago following a four-month hiatus, making the injury a particularly untimely setback.
Dave Meltzer confirmed the severity of the injury on Twitter, stating, “The Cora Jade knee injury from the weekend house show we talked about on the show last night is an ACL tear.” With the diagnosis indicating a torn ACL, it suggests a prolonged recovery period for Jade, likely sidelining her for several months. The injury not only impacts Jade personally but also alters the dynamics of the NXT women’s division, as the promotion will need to navigate her absence and adjust its storytelling and match plans accordingly.
As noted earlier, some people in WWE are questioning the method of training after several stars have been injured.
