Add as a preferred source on Google Blake Monroe has yet to make her official WWE Friday Night SmackDown debut, but she may have dropped the biggest clue so far about when it will happen.
In a recent interview with Vicente Beltrán, Monroe reacted to praise from Mark Henry, who described her as an “old school” wrestler. The comment clearly meant a lot to The Glamour, especially because she sees that style as a major part of her in-ring identity.
“That means a lot. I mean, I love Mark Henry and I was smiling reading that, which I don’t often smile, and it did make me really happy because I do think I’m pretty old school and pretty traditional.
“You know, I’m a wrestler’s wrestler, and if you look at my journey and moving all around the world and getting good at this craft, I think, like I said, Blake Monroe has something that not every woman has, and don’t get me wrong, everybody’s journeys are special, but I’m a wrestler’s wrestler, and I think you’re going to see that when I do eventually decide to debut on SmackDown.”
That debut could come in a special setting. WWE will hold the May 29 edition of Friday Night SmackDown at Olimpic Arena in Barcelona, Spain, as part of the company’s European tour.
Monroe used that detail to tease Spanish fans directly.
“Here’s the thing. SmackDown is coming to Spain. Do you know who else is coming to Spain? Blake Monroe. I haven’t made my SmackDown debut yet, maybe Barcelona is the place to do that. I mean, I am from Europe, Barcelona is a beautiful place. Hopefully, the people are beautiful too.
“Maybe you finally get to see the historic moment that The Glamour debuts on SmackDown. Maybe. That’s a good enough reason to buy a ticket, and Rhea Ripley and Cody Rhodes and people like that will be there, but, maybe The Glamour will be there.”
According to PWInsider’s Mike Johnson, Monroe is already expected to begin traveling with the SmackDown roster soon, further raising the possibility that her debut could happen before the end of the month.
