The Florida-native signed with the sports entertainment juggernaut in 2022, and has quickly risen through the ranks in NXT to emerge as one of the developmental brand's most talented prospects. She has already registered a run as the inaugural NXT Women's North American Champion, a belt she held for over three months before eventually losing it in a Gauntlet match at last year's Halloween Havoc.

For a while now, Jordan has been in a relationship with former NXT Champion and current Smackdown Superstar Carmelo Hayes. Through a recent Instagram post, the 26-year-old revealed to her followers that the couple were now officially engaged.
