In Competition: 27 Year Old Second Generation NXT Star Set For Miss Universe Canada Pageant

A title contender. Wrestlers can come from a variety of backgrounds and some of them can be from all over the place. You can find talented stars everywhere, and occasionally they will come from fields that have nothing to do with wrestling. Now a second generation wrestler is trying her hand in a fiend she worked in before she got into wrestling but still incorporates it into her new career.

NXT’s Arianna Grace has announced that she will be competing in the Miss Universe Canada pageant in May. The winner moves on to the Miss Canada pageant later this year. Grace thanked “her work place”, which she did not name, for allowing her to do this while she is rehabbing an injury. Grace has not wrestled since October 2022 when she tore her ACL. There is no word on when she is expected to return to the ring. During her time in NXT, Grace has been presented as a beauty pageant contestant and competed in pageants before entering wrestling.

Excited to share I will be competing in this years Miss Universe Canada!!!!! ? thankful to my work place for allowing me to do this while rehabbing my injury!

Grace has done well in her time in NXT. Check out some of her moments:

Opinion: The biggest thing here is that Grace is keeping her name out there while she isn’t in the ring. Grace hasn’t exactly been around much in recent months as she rehabs so this at least brings her up for the first time since the fall. If nothing else, having a nice run in the contest is something WWE can bring up again later, which would give Grace something to talk about when she gets back.
