NXT’s Blake Monroe had a lot to say about Jordynne Grace in her recent interview with TV Insider. The two talents who made a name for themselves outside the walls of WWE have just wrapped up their months long rivalry in a weaponized Steel Cage match.
While talking with TV Insider, Monroe commented on Grace and how much she pushed her to put on some high caliber matches.
“Jordynne has been wrestling for, I don’t know how old that woman is, but she has been wrestling for a really long time. We have girls coming in from Japan, Mexico. I think what is really exciting for me is I love getting in with people when we’re totally different. I’m thinking, “what am I going to learn from you, how “Jordynne has been wrestling for, I don’t know how old that woman is, but she has been wrestling for a really long time.

Jordynne definitely put me through really tough matches and pushed me to my limit.”
In the same interview, Monroe commented on another wrestler. Former Women’s World Champion IYO SKY received high praise from Monroe. She has claim that SKY is the best in the world regardless of gender.
“It’s amazing because I remember starting my wrestling journey and coming across Japanese wrestling, specifically women’s wrestling. I was amazed at the costumes and presentation. I thought, “what is this?” You’ve seen Iyo and Giulia, and their presentation, which is the best I’ve ever seen. I actually moved to Japan spontaneously. I was only supposed to go for a few months and moved there. I was at the dojo almost every day. I think I had about three or four matches a week. I already knew this world, so seeing the rest of the world find out that Iyo Sky is the best wrestler in the world, not just women’s wrestling. I was like, “yeah, catch up.” I’m excited to wrestle them and see what they can bring out of me. I’m just going to learn so much. I always had fun with everyone I wrestled in Japan. I think they had fun wrestling me too. I think for me in Japan I brought more character because I’m from England. I always had fun, and they had fun wrestling with me because we played with all those elements. I love it. That’s why I love WWE because it has this variety.”
At the time of this writing, Monroe and SKY have not shared a ring together.
