Miss NXT does not approve.
Sexyy Red hosted NXT Battlegroud on June 9 and kicked off the show with some eye-opening dancing. This led to Red dancing with Lola Vice and Kelani Jordan backstage. Even Sarah Schreiber got in on it.
NXT's resident beauty queen Arianna Grace took to Twitter/X on June 10 and voiced her disgust with all the twerking on her previous show. She questioned what example it set for young girls. Grace also said it was a slap in the face to their female predecessors who fought to pave the way for this generation. Grace wrote that she was repulsed.
As Miss NXT, I must express my disgust with all the twerking on my precious show. What example does this set for young girls? It is a slap in the face to our female predecessors who fought to pave the way for us… I am repulsed!!!!!! --#wwe #wwenxt

One user replied by noting that the previous generation competed in bikini contests and "stripping matches." Grace replied by saying that they did so this generation would not have to. She stated that their sacrifices gave the current talent the opportunity to perform and wrestle like the men.
So we didn’t have to! So we could get the opportunities to perform and WRESTLE like the men! Ignorance is not befitting. Silence yourself. https://t.co/IoGPIHvH7h
