Blake Monroe Unhappy With Recent WWE NXT Botch — Report
The fallout of the botched finish between Blake Monroe and Thea Hail earlier this month on WWE NXT continues to get messier.
In an unplanned moment on last week’s episode of WWE NXT, Thea Hail defeated Blake Monroe for the Women’s North American Championship. This took place after NXT referee Felix Fernandez called the match like a shoot and counted to three when Monroe failed to get her shoulder up. Reports suggest that Monroe had the wind knocked out of her by Hail’s springboard senton, which resulted in her not kicking out in time.
Before the evening was over, Fightful Select released a report that revealed the botched result had caused a scramble backstage. Noting this turn of events greatly altered the creative plans set for the next several weeks. There have also been conflicting reports on whether there is currently heat on the referee of the match.
Blake Monroe isn’t happy
But how does the former champion, Blake Monroe, feel about the recent turn of events? Apparently, she’s not happy about it.
According to Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp (via Fightful Select), Blake Monroe is unhappy about how things went down. Reportedly telling people that she told the referee that she was injured following the springboard senton move from Thea Hail.
It was also claimed to Sapp that the team in charge of Monroe’s creative wasn’t happy either. Despite the injury claim from Monroe, a rematch between the two women was quickly made. It will take place at NXT New Year’s Evil on January 6.
Despite reports of heat on referee Felix Fernandez, Sapp was told that Matt Bloom, Shawn Michaels, and other referees told Fernandez that he handled things the right way. Specifically noting there was nothing he didn’t check or listen to.
