In January, during a WWE NXT live event, Cora Jade sustained a torn ACL and promptly underwent surgery. This led many fans to assume she’d be sidelined for the rest of the year. However, she made a surprising comeback on NXT this week, and her return has quickly turned into a viral sensation online, spawning a ton of memes.
On the October 1st episode of NXT, Roxanne Perez put her NXT Women’s Championship on the line against Giulia in a highly anticipated showdown. Both competitors showcased their skills, with multiple close calls that had fans wondering who would come out on top.
The match took an unexpected turn when a hooded figure suddenly charged into the ring, attacking Giulia and giving Roxanne the upper hand to retain her title. Later, it was revealed that the mysterious assailant was none other than Cora Jade, marking her unexpected return after a lengthy absence due to injury.
While many fans were happy to see Cora Jade, quite a few fans decided to make memes about her return as she has now become a viral sensation on social media. This was mostly during the time she opened up her jacket and showed off her top, as numerous memes focused on her chest and made it about wrestling references.
One such meme was about how Giulia and Perez were having a great match but Jade came out and showed off her chest. Others used her as a punchline for X-Men writers running out of ideas and opting to use time travel as a plot device.
WWE is also very high on Cora Jade and has big plans for her now that she is back. Roxanne Perez and Cora Jade hinted at a possible reunion and this has excited fans since they will be teaming up for the first time since July 2022. Therefore, we’ll have to see how Jade will be booked in the coming weeks, as it’s clear she will be a highlight on NXT television from now on.
