NXT star Coda Jade has been having a great time in the brand. The 21-year-old alongside several other WWE NXT stars have been trending on social media for their costumes for the recent Halloween Battle Royal. At the Melbourne, Florida house show on October 28th, stars from the women’s division battled it out in an over-the-top rope Battle Royal.
Every competitor wore a solid outfit in time for Halloween. Cora Jade took to Twitter and uploaded a photo of herself cosplaying as AJ Lee, complete with a WWE Diva’s Title.

In a recent interview with Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful, Cora Jade opened up about how Lee inspired her to become a superstar.
“I feel like she was kind of the first person to start making everybody see women can do all this exact same stuff,” Jade said of Lee. “She was kind of the first woman to have all this merch, and none of the other women really kind of got to have that at the time (…) I saw so much of myself in her. She was a fan as well, and I just feel like we had a lot of similarities,” she said.
