A reigning WWE champion shares she’s still dealing with a previous injury.
In April 2024, Jacy Jayne suffered a broken nose after facing off with Thea Hail in the second week of WWE NXT Spring Breakin’. She returned a couple of months later, but began sporting a face mask for a while to cover up her injury. Although it has already been a year, the Women’s Champion still suffers the effects of her accident.
On WWE – Die Woche, Jacy Jayne revealed that her nose was shattered into three places and was advised to get another surgery. However, she never got around to doing so, and now breathes through her mouth,
“Mine was shattered in three places and they basically were like, ‘Your nose is so broken, that we just have to make it straight first and then if you wanna have another surgery, you can come back and we’ll fix the septum. But I never had the second surgery so I can’t breathe out of my nose at all… I’m like a mouth-breather now. It’s really bad.”
Jacy Jayne Received A Special Gift From Cody Rhodes Following Her WWE NXT Injury
On the June 11 episode of WWE NXT, just after Jacy returned with a protective mask, she crossed backstage with Cody Rhodes, who gave her his iconic “Undashing Mask.” As it turns out, there’s more to this story.
In the same appearance, Jayne recalled her meeting with Rhodes and said she was just told that she would meet a special guest, but had no idea it would be Cody until the actual day. The NXT Women’s Champion shared it was “crazy” getting gifted with the mask as she watched Cody growing up, even noting that it had a crack from when he got hit.
Jacy Jayne added that she also pitched to have a similar Cody Rhodes storyline of putting brown bags over “ugly people.” However, the storyline didn’t get that far. Still, she would pitch it again to WWE if she ever broke her nose again.
