Jazmyn Nyx Exits WWE NXT Amid Contract Dispute, Fatal Influence Shifted

Jazmyn Nyx, a WWE NXT star and former soccer player, chose not to renew her WWE contract after negotiations stalled over a pay raise she sought beyond her initial $75,000 yearly salary, leading her to explore other opportunities outside WWE. Current NXT Women’s Champion Jacy Jayne, who was part of Nyx's faction Fatal Influence, praised Nyx's decision and expressed adaptability as a key skill for success in WWE, emphasizing the importance of adjusting to ongoing changes within the wrestling business. Jayne also discussed the NXT 2.0 rebrand in 2021, highlighting its focus on character development and introducing new talent, which marked a shift from the original NXT's emphasis on established indie wrestlers. Following Nyx's departure, Lainey Reid joined Fatal Influence, and Jayne expressed optimism about the new partnership, noting Reid’s strong work ethic and chemistry with the group. Jayne reflected on her experience with faction changes, including the earlier dissolution of Toxic Attraction, asserting that adaptability is essential in the unpredictable environment of professional wrestling. She is preparing to defend her NXT Women’s Championship against Tatum Paxley at the upcoming Halloween Havoc event, underscoring her ongoing presence and ambition in WWE.
