NXT’s women’s division is facing a period of adjustment following a neck injury to Jaida Parker, sidelining the wrestler and leading to her suspension after an incident with a referee. The developments stem from a heated rivalry with Blake Monroe, which culminated in a controversial match on the February 10th episode of NXT, as highlighted by WWE.com and a YouTube highlight reel.
During the February 17th NXT broadcast, Monroe addressed the fallout from their previous encounter, which ended in a double count-out after both competitors continued to brawl outside the ring. The situation escalated when Monroe interrupted a conversation between Robert Stone and Fallon Henley, referencing Parker’s actions. NXT’s General Manager subsequently announced Parker’s suspension for attacking a referee and confirmed the neck injury that will keep her out of action, according to reports from Diva Dirt.
Parker’s Absence and Monroe’s Tournament Entry
Parker’s absence from NXT television had been noticeable throughout much of the fall and winter of 2025. Her return last month was immediately focused on a confrontation with Monroe, igniting a rivalry that quickly intensified with verbal exchanges and physical altercations both inside and outside the WWE Performance Center. The February 10th match was the latest chapter in this escalating feud.
Adding another layer to the situation, Monroe has been officially added to the field for the Women’s Speed Title tournament. This decision, announced during the February 17th broadcast, places Monroe in a prominent position despite the controversy surrounding her recent match with Parker. Her first-round opponent will be Thea Hail, setting the stage for another potentially volatile contest.
The Incident During the Match
The match between Parker and Monroe on February 10th was marked by physicality and a disregard for traditional wrestling boundaries. The bout concluded with a double count-out as the two competitors continued their fight outside the ring. During the exchange, Monroe attempted a suplex, but landed awkwardly, impacting her head. Despite the rough landing, she continued the match until its planned finish.
Stone’s Comments and Potential Intent
During the February 17th broadcast, Robert Stone briefly suggested that Monroe may have intentionally contributed to Parker’s injury. But, he quickly shifted the focus to the upcoming competition in the women’s division, signaling a desire to move forward and highlight other talent. This comment adds another dimension to the already complex dynamic between Parker and Monroe.
Looking Ahead to the Women’s Speed Title Tournament
With Parker sidelined and recovering from her neck injury, Monroe’s attention is now firmly fixed on the Women’s Speed Title tournament. Her match against Hail represents a crucial opportunity to gain momentum and establish herself as a contender in the NXT women’s division. The tournament promises to reshape the title picture and identify new challengers for the championship.
The next update regarding Jaida Parker’s condition and potential return to NXT is expected from WWE officials in the coming weeks. Fans can stay informed through official WWE channels, including WWE.com, for the latest news and announcements.
