Jacy Jayne is the new WWE NXT Women’s Champion, securing the title from Stephanie Vaquer in the main event of the May 27 WWE NXT broadcast. The victory came with assistance from Jayne’s Fatal Influence associates, Fallon Henley and Jazmyn Nyx.
This championship win for Jayne concluded Vaquer’s 77-day tenure with the title. The match followed Vaquer’s recent successful championship defense against Jordynne Grace at WWE Battleground. The outcome of the May 27 contest is considered a significant upset in recent NXT history, prompting notable reactions from attendees at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando and across social media platforms.
Following her championship acquisition, Jayne posted a message on X:
To everyone who ever doubted me, called me the third wheel, said I’d never make it… HAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!! Never doubt me again.
This marks Jacy Jayne’s first reign as NXT Women’s Champion. Her WWE debut occurred nearly five years ago, and her prior championship success on the brand was in 2022 when she held the NXT Women’s Tag Team Championships with Gigi Dolin.
