Thea Hail isnt letting the WWE NXT Womens North American Championship situation fade quietly into the new year.
After weeks of behind-the-scenes reports explaining that Hails December 16 title win on WWE NXT was the result of a miscommunication and not the planned finish, the situation reignited on January 1, 2026 this time on social media.
Blake Monroe posted photos of herself posing with the championship, framing the moment as a continuation rather than a controversy. Alongside the images, Monroe added a pointed caption that many fans immediately read as a shot at the reigning champion.
That post didnt sit well with Hail, who quickly responded on X with a blunt, no-nonsense reply that cut straight to the personal tension beneath the storyline.
What makes the moment sting even more is the timing. Hail is still officially the champion, yet Monroe publicly presenting herself with the title and framing it as a sequel reopened questions about whether WWE plans to reverse the decision in upcoming NXT tapings.
Whether this exchange turns into fuel for a deeper storyline or reflects genuine frustration between the two remains unclear. What is clear is that Hail isnt staying quiet, and shes not backing down from a championship she won planned or not.
Do you think Thea Hail was right to clap back publicly, or should WWE have stepped in before this spilled onto social media? Let us know what you think and drop your thoughts in the comments.
