Stephanie Vaquer’s abrupt loss of the NXT Women’s Championship on the May 27 episode of NXT wasn’t just shocking—it was strategic. WWE went all-in to keep the title change a tightly guarded secret, and now we’re learning exactly what’s next for the Chilean standout.
According to Fightful Select, WWE took special internal precautions to make sure Jacy Jayne’s win stayed under wraps until it played out live on TV.
“Naturally, steps were taken to protect the surprise NXT Women’s Championship victory by Stephanie Vaquer, including with internal rundowns,” the report stated.
Vaquer had just come off a hard-fought title defense against Jordynne Grace at WWE Battleground, and she appeared to be in control of her match with Jayne—until chaos unfolded. After landing her signature Devil’s Kiss, Fallon Henley blasted her with a kick to the face, allowing Jayne to capitalize and steal the win. The entire Capitol Wrestling Center was left stunned.
But that loss may have been the final chapter in Vaquer’s NXT run.
PWN’s Cory Hays initially reported that Vaquer was set for a main roster move, writing:
“Stephanie Vaquer is expected to join Monday Night Raw following her loss to Jacy Jayne.”
Now, PWInsider has doubled down and narrowed the timeline—revealing she’s not just heading to Raw soon… she’s heading there next month.
“Stephanie Vaquer is expected to join the WWE RAW roster next month,” PWInsider reported.
That timeline puts her debut just days away, with May already nearing its end. Vaquer’s recent Raw cameos now seem like breadcrumbs leading to a full-time red brand arrival—one that could instantly shake up the women’s division.
With WWE going to great lengths to protect the shock factor of her NXT title loss and multiple reports confirming her move to Raw, all signs point to Vaquer hitting the ground running when June arrives.
