Kelani Jordan Planned For WWE Main Roster Call-Up

Kelani Jordan is the reigning WWE NXT Women's Champion but her days on the Tuesday night show may be numbered.

Jordan debuted on the WWE main roster on the September 14 edition of Monday Night Raw in a Money in the Bank qualifier Triple Threat against Lola Vice and Raquel Rodríguez. Jordan didn't win the match, with Lola Vice advancing to MITB, but the NXT talent's inclusion in the match, according to WrestleVotes Radio on Fightful Select, was to introduce Jordan to the main roster audience.

Plans are already in place for Jordan to be called up to the main roster when her NXT Women's Title reign comes to an end, with the end of 2026 currently seen as the timeframe when she will move to either Raw or SmackDown on a permanent basis. Jordan captured the NXT Women's Championship from Kendal Grey at NXT Heatwave on August 30.

Kelani Jordan has been a part of WWE since August 2022 and she made her NXT TV debut one year later in August 2023. Jordan has been a featured performer in NXT since then, and she was the inaugural NXT Women's North American Champion, holding the belt for 140 days in 2024. Jordan also held the TNA Knockouts World Championship for 53 days in 2025 as part of WWE NXT's working relationship with TNA.
