NXT star Blake Monroe has reacted to the first look at her debut in the WWE 2K26 video game, due for release later this year.
With Joe Hendry recently revealed as a pre-order bonus for WWE 2K26, fellow NXT star Blake Monroe was also confirmed.
Footage has now emerged providing a first look at the former NXT Women’s North American Champion in the game, with Monroe reacting on social media.
The first look shows Monroe’s entrance, with the star herself responding to the video on Twitter, commenting:
“I gave you the recipe, and you COOKED 😍👩🏼🍳🍜🫶🏼”
The post would be followed up by a further comment from Monroe, who declared:
“oh 😭😭😭🩷🩷🩷 my dreams come true”
Monroe will be familiar to AEW fans as Mariah May, a former Women’s World Champion, who signed with the company in November 2023 and would part ways in May 2025, debuting in NXT the following month.
Set for March 13 release, with early access from a week earlier, the latest entry in the long-running video game series will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch 2 and Windows PC.
As is tradition for the series, multiple special editions have been confirmed, including the Monday Night Wars and Attitude Era Editions.
The standard edition of the upcoming game will feature CM Punk as its cover star, marking the first time since the THQ release of WWE 13.
