WWE has acquired quite a few stars from AEW over the years, including the likes of Cody Rhodes and Jade Cargill. However, one particular acquisition has caught the eye of wrestling veteran Bill Apter, who feels she made a mistake signing with the Stamford-based promotion. The star in question, Blake Monroe, was known as Mariah May in AEW. Before she jumped ship, she was the Women's World Champion on Tony Khan's promotion. However, she was sent to NXT, which, according to veteran journalist Bill Apter, was too much of a step-down for the young star.Speaking on the latest episode of The Wrestling Time Machine hosted by Mac Davis, Apter stated:"It's not an issue, well yeah it is. I mean I am wondering if she made a mistake leaving AEW. And I'll tell you why. They created this beautiful character of her emulating Marilyn Monroe... The thing that I am surprised that is happening, I know it's early in her tenure there. Number one is that they brought her into NXT. When she was in AEW she was main event quality. She goes into NXT, you're kinda on the same level as the rest of the roster in there."
