Former WWE Champion Is Returning In A New Role: Report
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A new report has revealed that a respected veteran is set to return to the WWE Performance Center. Former two-time WWE Women's Champion Jazz is reportedly slated for another run as a Guest Coach next month. The news comes from a recent report by PWInsider. It notes that word around Orlando last week was that the legendary competitor will be back to work with WWE's developmental talent. A Valued And Respected Mentor This upcoming stint as a Guest Coach follows a previous visit that was very well-received. According to the report, Jazz left a strong, positive impression on both talent and staff. Sources noted that Jazz received "really good feedback" from the NXT superstars she worked with. This has reportedly led to the company inviting her back to share her knowledge once again. The Legacy Of A Powerhouse Champion Jazz, real name Carlene Begnaud, is widely regarded as one of the most intense and credible competitors of her era. She was a powerhouse during WWE's Ruthless Aggression era in the early 2000s. During her time with the company, she captured the WWE Women's Championship on two occasions. She is remembered for her physical feuds with fellow Hall of Famers like Trish Stratus and Lita. Beyond her WWE success, Jazz also had a dominant reign as the NWA World Women's Champion. Her tough, no-nonsense style set her apart throughout her celebrated career.

LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - OCTOBER 11: A WWE logo is shown on a screen before a WWE news conference at T-Mobile Arena on October 11, 2019 in Las Vegas, Nevada. It was announced that WWE wrestler Braun Strowman will face heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury and WWE champion Brock Lesnar will take on former UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez at the WWE's Crown Jewel event at Fahd International Stadium in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on October 31. More Sharing Knowledge After Retirement After officially announcing her retirement from in-ring competition in 2021, Jazz has continued to give back to the wrestling business. She has focused on training and coaching opportunities. Her return to the Performance Center marks another chance for WWE's up-and-coming talent to learn from a true veteran of the sport. While no official dates have been announced by WWE, her presence is seen as a major benefit for the NXT roster. The guest coaching position often serves as a "tryout" for both the company and the former star. WWE can assess a legend's ability to teach and connect with the current generation, potentially leading to a full-time role as a coach or producer. At the same time, the veteran can determine if they enjoy the coaching lifestyle and want to commit to it without being locked into a long-term contract immediately. For young superstars in the NXT system, having a childhood hero or a WWE Hall of Famer in the ring with them is incredibly motivating. It validates their journey and pushes them to work harder.
