The latest episode of WWE NXT saw the shocking breakup of Cora Jade and Roxanne Perez as a tag team. The tension between them began last week after they lost to Bayley and Giulia in a tag match.
In a backstage segment with General Manager Ava, Roxanne Perez blamed Cora Jade for their loss. Jade didn’t take it well and later hinted at their split by posting, “We are not good.”
This week, WWE NXT confirmed their breakup during a segment featuring Bayley, Roxanne Perez, and NXT Women’s Champion Giulia. Charlotte Flair, the 2025 Women’s Royal Rumble winner, interrupted them.
Flair reminded everyone of her NXT Women’s Championship victory over Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania 36. She praised Perez’s Royal Rumble performance but warned that if Perez is still NXT Champion at WrestleMania, she’ll end up as a runner-up again. Flair promised to defeat Perez at WrestleMania 41 and sent the same message to Giulia and Bayley.
Suddenly, Cora Jade appeared and attacked Giulia and Bayley with a kendo stick. She then locked eyes with Perez in a tense moment before swinging at her. Perez dodged and escaped the ring. With their friendship clearly over, Jade made a bold statement with her actions on WWE NXT.
