Ex-AEW World Champion Blake Monroe has been making waves on WWE SmackDown lately.

The Glamour made her official SmackDown debut on the June 26 edition, where she attacked Giulia after the latter defeated Kiana James in a singles match. She laid her out with the Neutralizer to make a bold statement on her debut.

Then, on July 3, she ambushed Giulia again in a backstage segment. The fans also saw her take out Kiana James. On the July 10 edition of Friday Night SmackDown, Monroe continued to make her presence felt on SmackDown by attacking Chelsea Green.

It happened after Cathy Kelly’s interview with Tiffany Stratton, which was interrupted by Green and then The Irresistible Forces (Nia Jax and Lash Legend). As Kelly was interviewing the Women’s United States Champion, Green showed up and proposed that Stratton target the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship with her.

Moments later, Jax and Lash Legend confronted them and reminded them that they have their sights set on the Women’s Tag Team Titles. After Tiffany, Nia, and Lash left, Blake Monroe brutally attacked Green from behind. Monroe then told Green her name so that she knew who was the one who attacked her.
