WWE NXT Superstar Cora Jade will be out of action for close to a year after suffering a torn ACL during a recent live event.
During the January 16, 2024, edition of WWE NXT, the gold brand confirmed reports that Jade had been injured at an untelevised show. It was confirmed that Jade suffered a torn ACL. She is slated to miss up to a year of in-ring action. The injury occurred during a match between Jade and NXT Women's Champion Lyra Valkyria. During this week's show, however, it was stated that Jade wrestled and lost to someone else.
This is a huge setback for Jade who only recently made her return to programming. At NXT Deadline last month Jade attacked NXT Women's Champion Lyra Valkyria in her first appearance since July. Valkyria had been involved in a staredown with Blair Davenport, who had won the women's Iron Survivor Challenge match to earn an NXT Women's Championship shot against the Valkyrie.
Jade's injury will once again raise questions regarding the safety of the training WWE provides at its Performance Center. Jade is the latest woman to be taken out with a torn ACL. Amari Miller, Arianna Grace, Nikkita Lyons, and Yulisa Leon have all suffered ACL tears as part of WWE NXT. It'll be important for WWE to find the balance between conditioning talent for the future while also not pushing them beyond their current limits.
