An absent NXT wrestler is expected back shortly.

Jaida Parker hasn’t wrestled on NXT programming since a battle royal on the October 7, 2025 episode of NXT. According to a report from BodySlam.net, Parker is expected to return in the near future.

It’s not clear why Parker has been absent from NXT television. She has continued working NXT live events during that time, however. Her most recent match took place at the December 20 NXT house show in Dade City, Florida, where she defeated Tyra Mae Steele.

The NXT women’s division has seen several recent departures. Jordynne Grace was officially called up to the SmackDown roster after spending a little under a year in NXT. Lash Legend has also moved to SmackDown, where she is now teaming with Nia Jax. There have additionally been discussions regarding potential main roster call-ups for Blake Monroe and Jacy Jayne, although a recent Fightful report stated that neither is expected to be called up imminently.
