NXTs Jaida Parker is gearing up for a championship match for the NXT Womens Championship on March 25 against Stephanie Vaquer. This upcoming match is Parkers second shot at the top gold after facing then-champion Roxanne Perez last year at No Mercy.
As a former soccer player at LSU (Louisiana State University), Parker comes from a college sports background and is a homegrown talent. She spoke in a recent interview for the No-Contest Wrestling Podcast where she commented on tennis legend Serena Williams.
Legend. A legend. Ive looked up to her since high school, since when I can remember. From seeing her do her little crip walk at the [Super Bowl] to her little tennis matches, you know what Im saying, to her being a role model for her daughters and her children. She is a definition of a true role model besides Bayley. She is so inspirational to me that I wouldnt know where I would be if I didnt decide to adapt my mindset to the way her mindset was. She pushes me, even though she dont even know me. I know her and shes an inspiration to me. (Fightful transcript)
Parker was on this weeks NXT, taking out Jordynne Grace, and setting herself up with the championship match next week.
