It was the 22nd birthday of the NXT superstar Cora Jade on January 14th. The WWE Universe and some fellow superstars wished her on her big day, but one of them who refrained from doing so was Roxanne Perez. The current NXT women’s champion also explained why she didn’t wish her former tag team partner.
When a fan asked Roxanne whether she wished Cora Jade on her birthday, the superstar replied, “No, she didn’t wish me a happy birthday”. The NXT champion celebrated her birthday just a couple of months ago, on November 5th and as she said, she didn’t receive any wishes from Jade. She doesn’t seem to take this kindly and now refuses to wish Jade on her birthday.
Roxanne Perez and Cora Jade are former NXT women’s tag team champions. They held the title for a couple of weeks before Jade betrayed Perez and dumped her title in a trashcan. Roxanne had to vacate her half of the title as well and the two would go on to feud over the summer. The feud culminated in a Weapons Wild Match at Halloween Havoc, which Perez won.
After the feud, Roxanne Perez would go on to win the first-ever Iron Survivor Challenge at NXT Deadline. Three days later, on a live episode of NXT, she shocked the world by defeating Mandy Rose and ending her 413 days reign as NXT women’s champion. This recent Tweet from the champion keeps the fans guessing about a possible match between Jade and Perez again, this time for the championship.
Who else wished Cora Jade on her birthday?
While Cora Jade must’ve received lots of love and wishes from her friends and family, many fans and fellow wrestlers also wished her well on Twitter and Instagram. As expected, Bronn Breakker, her real-life boyfriend, posted a photo with her on Instagram and wished her on the big day. Bayley is also good friends with the young NXT star and took this time to wish her publicly on Twitter. Bayley wrote a sweet message, tweeting, “Happy birthday Cora Jade. Your turn to inspire the next generation.”
Mandy Rose, who got released from WWE in December, also wished Jade well on her Instagram story and said that she missed her former colleague. On this occasion, the 22-year-old posted some selfies on Instagram and received love in the comments as well. Lash Legend, Sonny Kiss, and AEW star Julia Hart wished her in the comment section. Cora Jade has shown much potential at a very young age, and it is evident that she is loved all around the wrestling world.
In case you missed it!
