Kendal Grey, the former NXT Women's Champion, has been appearing in therapy vignettes on WWE NXT as she remains absent from the ring. Discussions on the segments emerged during a recent Wrestling Observer Radio episode, where Bryan Alvarez criticized the creative direction. Dave Meltzer echoed this sentiment, suggesting the intention is to develop Grey's acting ability despite her established wrestling talent. Meltzer described the material as subpar and noted that the decision seems to detract from Grey's strengths as a performer. NXT has cited a storyline injury, claiming Grey is out due to vertigo, although critical assessments question this rationale.
