The intense rivalry between Blake Monroe and Jaida Parker is set to reach its boiling point on a premium live event stage. NXT interim general manager Robert Stone officially utilized his social media platforms to confirm that the two bitter enemies will settle their differences in a one-on-one grudge match at WWE NXT Vengeance Day on Saturday, March 7.
Settling the Score After Months of Hostility
The animosity between the two rising stars has been simmering since mid-January. The feud ignited when Parker made a dramatic return from a television hiatus and immediately confronted Monroe, making her intentions clear. Their first official in-ring encounter took place on the February 10 episode of NXT television. The match quickly devolved into an uncontrollable brawl outside the ring, resulting in the referee calling a double countout and leaving the issue entirely unresolved. Stone’s announcement guarantees a definitive conclusion to their violent saga in front of a live premium event audience.
The addition of the Monroe versus Parker bout bolsters an already stacked lineup for Vengeance Day, highlighting the incredible depth of the current NXT roster. The main event will feature international sensation Joe Hendry defending his NXT Championship against the ever-popular Ricky Saints.
The women’s division will be heavily featured throughout the night. Alongside the Monroe-Parker grudge match, reigning champion Izzi Dame is scheduled to defend her NXT Women’s North American Championship against the unhinged Tatum Paxley. Furthermore, the event promises brutal, un-sanctioned violence as martial arts specialist Lola Vice steps into the ropeless ring to face the athletic Kelani Jordan in a highly anticipated NXT Underground Match. Vengeance Day is shaping up to be a pivotal night for the developmental brand as they establish the hierarchy heading into WrestleMania weekend.
