Blake Monroe Drops Jordynne Grace with Steel Chair DDT – The July 22 edition of WWE NXT took place at the 713 Music Hall in Houston, Texas, delivering a unique setting for a memorable night that included the much-anticipated singles debut of Blake Monroe, formerly known as Mariah May.
Monroe, who made headlines earlier this month by signing with WWE and competing at NXT: The Great American Bash in tag team action, finally stepped into the spotlight as a singles competitor. Her opponent was Wren Sinclair, who walked in with encouragement from the No Quarter Catch Crew but was clearly outmatched from the start.
Despite a few moments of resilience and near falls from Sinclair, Monroe remained dominant throughout the match. With polished in-ring presence and total control of the pace, Monroe eventually sealed her first singles win with a decisive DDT.
However, the action didn’t end with the three-count.
As Monroe celebrated, Jordynne Grace stormed the ringside area and jumped the barricade, looking for payback. WWE officials rushed in to hold Grace back, but that only delayed the inevitable. Seizing the moment, Monroe blindsided Grace and dropped her with another vicious DDT—this time onto a steel chair at ringside.
The rivalry between Monroe and Grace continues to intensify. While they were on the same team just ten days ago at The Great American Bash, things took a turn after Monroe attacked Grace in a shocking betrayal. Now, with Monroe representing WWE and Grace flying the TNA banner, their feud has become a cross-promotional flashpoint.
What raises the stakes even further is that the winner of their upcoming rematch will take full possession of the TNA Knockouts World Title, currently held by Trick Williams’ faction but still physically contested between Monroe and Grace.
Monroe may have made a dominant start in singles competition, but her war with Jordynne Grace is far from over.
