A former champion has received a stern warning from a WWE authority figure for their unprofessionalism.

Of late, Kelani Jordan has had it in for Lola Vice, with the two NXT superstars constantly finding each other in their crosshairs.

Jordan was the inaugural NXT Women’s North American Champion, a title she won at the developmental brand’s 2024 Battleground event. She held it for 140 days before losing it to Fallon Henley at that year’s Halloween Havoc.

Following WWE’s signing of a cross-promotion deal with TNA in 2025, Jordan became the TNA Knockouts Champion at Victory Road. During the pay-per-view, then-champion Ash by Elegance relinquished the title owing to personal health issues.

This went on to cause complications for her, as she found herself with the option to choose between NXT and TNA for the Showdown event. She ultimately opted for TNA, which led the NXT talent to see her as a traitor.

As a result, she was kicked out of the NXT locker room, with Lola Vice being one of the women initiating the proceedings.

WWE NXT Manager Warns Kelani Jordan After Latest Attack

On February 7, Lola Vice competed at AAA on FOX, where she and her tag partner, Mr. Iguana, won the AAA Mixed World Tag Team Championship.

Vice later revealed that she competed through an injury. During the taping of the February 11 episode of NXT, Vice was seen receiving treatment on her injured hand.

Interim general manager Robert Stone walked in and reminded her about her singles match next week with Jordan. He also forewarned her that if her hand did not heal, he might have to cancel their match.

After he left the room, Jordan snuck up on Vice and dropped her with a shot to the back of her head. She then kicked a drawer where Vice had placed her injured hand, further exacerbating its condition, leaving her writhing in pain.

Later, Robert Stone took to X, warning Kelani Jordan that unprofessionalism will not be tolerated.
