WWE Newcomer Making BIG Impression, Breakout Year Expected In 2026 (WWE News)
Triple H sees big things in the future for this recent NXT > WWE main roster jump.
Triple H and other WWE officials really like what they've been seeing from Lash Legend on the main roster so far, according to reports from BodySlam.net. The former NXT star was called up to the main roster in early November and revealed as a brand new tag-team partner for Nia Jax. She's since worked spots in the women's WarGames match at Survivor Series.
Now, WWE chiefs "are confident that Legend will have a breakout year as we approach 2026".
This is actually the second time that Lash has been on the main roster. Previously, she and then-partner Jakara Jackson made a brief splash on SmackDown in late-2024, but it didn't last too long. Jackson was eventually released from her contract on 2 May 2025, so Legend has been flying solo ever since. At least until linking up with Jax.
Lash's Team With Nia Jax Is Viewed As Useful
BodySlam.net's report also says that Lash's alliance with Nia is supposed to help “get her up to speed with main roster talents as quick as possible”. That's presumably why WWE top brass chucked the NXT hopeful in at the deep end by making her part of the women's WarGames brawl - that seemed to come out of nowhere, and build towards the bout felt terribly sudden/rushed.
It's an experience that should stand Legend in good stead though. Getting to mix it with top female stars like Becky Lynch, Rhea Ripley, Charlotte Flair and others shouldn't be taken for granted. It'd be a slight surprise if Lash and Jax didn't score a Women's Tag-Team Title reign at some point too.
So, it looks like big things are coming Legend's way in the new year. That must be music to her ears.
