WWE fans have been left stunned after the news of Cora Jade’s release broke online. The NXT star, once seen as a potential future champion, is no longer with the company, as confirmed by PWInsider. The move has triggered a wave of reactions on social media, with many fans voicing frustration over what they believe was an unfulfilled WWE run.
Jade, known for her rebellious persona and fierce in-ring style, had been off television for months due to a series of injuries. While some speculated her absence was due to creative restructuring within NXT, her official release has reignited conversation around WWE’s handling of young talent.
A promising star plagued by injuriesCora Jade’s rise in NXT was fast and promising. Her storyline with Roxanne Perez was one of the brand’s key highlights, and many believed she was destined for at least one NXT Women’s Championship run. However, frequent injuries interrupted her momentum, and each return was met with either a short push or storyline cancellation.
One Twitter user wrote “cora deserves so much better. they’ve continuously dropped the ball with her. she’s gonna thrive in AEW.”
“She definitely would be a major player, but the injury bug hit her hard,” one Reddit user commented, summarizing the general sentiment.
Another noted, “Every time they tried something with her, she got injured a month in. It’s just sad.”
Speculation also surrounds the sudden halt of her program with Perez after Stand and Deliver, further fueling rumors that WWE had lost long-term confidence in her in-ring availability.
Fans link release to Becky Lynch incidentWhile injuries may have played a part, a separate theory is also gaining traction online. Fans are pointing toward a social media spat between Cora Jade and Becky Lynch as a possible factor behind the release.
Back in March, Lynch responded to a CM Punk promo with a tweet referencing Roxanne Perez. Jade, a known supporter of Punk, fired back by tweeting “Weird behavior” - a post she quickly deleted, though not before it went viral.
Since then, Lynch’s creative involvement in NXT storylines has reportedly increased, and fans are speculating whether this online exchange had backstage consequences.
“Reason why Cora got released. Becky Hogan used her backstage power,” one fan wrote, mixing sarcasm with suspicion.
Many fans believe Cora Jade could land in AEW or TNA, with several users noting she still has the charisma and following to make an impact elsewhere.
“She’s going to thrive outside WWE. They really dropped the ball,” one fan tweeted.
For now, Jade’s release remains one of the most discussed exits of the year - and fans aren’t ready to let it go quietly.
