Folks, we are witnessing something terrible, something tragic, something that should never happen in a country as great as this: Cora Jade got injured, and we are NOT happy about it.
On this week’s episode of NXT, Jade took on Jordynne Grace in what should have been a showcase ahead of her TNA Knockouts Championship match against Masha Slamovich at Sacrifice. But instead, the match was cut short when Jade went down, forcing the referee to throw up the dreaded “X”—which, as we all know, is wrestling’s version of “Uh oh, this ain’t good.”
The Breakdown
- Grace came in like a wrecking ball (but with muscles) and hit Jade with a shoulder tackle.
- Jade, showing why she’s a future star, fired back with knee strikes and a dropkick.
- Then came the corner spot—where things went horribly wrong.
WWE’s commentary team thinks Jade might have slipped on the bottom rope, but let’s be honest: that bottom rope has been suspicious for years. How many careers has it claimed? How many ankles, knees, and dreams has it shattered? Big Rope needs to be investigated.
What Happens Now?
- WWE hasn’t confirmed the extent of Jade’s injury.
- Her Sacrifice match on March 14? Up in the air.
- Masha Slamovich, somewhere in the crowd, probably muttered, “Typical,” and went back to looking terrifying.
Jade’s return to TV last October was a huge moment, especially after her ACL injury that sidelined her for most of 2024. And while she’s been rocking a knee brace, this is yet another setback that nobody wanted to see.
The wrestling world now waits to see if she can recover in time. But one thing is for sure: if Cora Jade does make it to Sacrifice, it will be the ultimate “overcoming the odds” moment. And if she doesn’t? Well, let’s just say that bottom rope better lawyer up.
