In 2004, Jacqueline was only appearing on WWE sporadically. In May of that year, the then-Cruiserweight Champion, Chavo Guerrero issued an open challenge for his title, which was accepted by Jacqueline.

Jacqueline showed Guerrero that she was serious about his challenge when she slapped him across the face, starting the match. Jacqueline later hit Guerrero with a low blow and a surprise roll-up to become WWE Cruiserweight Champion, becoming one of three women to achieve this.

Jacqueline's reign as WWE Cruiserweight Champion only lasted nine days after Guerrero was able to win the belt back at Judgement Day after interference from his father Chavo Classic.

Not long after this storyline, Jacqueline was unfortunately released from WWE. After a successful stint in the TNA Knockouts Division, Jacqueline returned to WWE briefly in 2016 to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, being the first African-American woman to receive this accolade.

Jacqueline has also been honoured as "one of the greatest female superstars in the history of WWE" during the recent RAW 25th-anniversary celebrations and was an entrant in the first-ever women's Royal Rumble match.
