Blake Monroe Has WWE Fans In Awe Of Backstage Photo

Blake Monroe turned plenty of heads while making her main roster debut for the WWE on Friday night.

Monroe signed with the WWE in June 2025 and was immediately assigned to the NXT brand. She proved to be quite the performer, defeating Zaria in October to win the NXT Women's North American Championship.

Although she wasn't given much to do during her "SmackDown" debut, Monroe stole the show by interrupting Chelsea Green's airtime.

After making her brief debut, Monroe posted a photo of her "SmackDown" attire on social media along with the caption: "just a taste..."

Judging by the reactions online, WWE fans had nothing but great things to say about Monroe's appearance.

"Blake was only on screen for 15 seconds, yet was the best thing on the show," one fan commented. "Her power."

"It's Blake Monroe's world and we're just lucky to be living in it," a second fan said.

"From making vlogs in her bedroom when she was training to be a pro wrestler, to officially arriving on Smackdown," another fan wrote. "Hard work pays off."

Prior to joining the WWE, Monroe had a successful stint with All Elite Wrestling. In fact, she won the AEW Women's World Championship in August 2024.

It could be a while before Monroe enters the main event conversation on "SmackDown," but at least she's already on good terms with the WWE universe.

Monroe should return to the spotlight during next Friday's episode of "SmackDown."
