About Zaria

Australian powerhouse who dominated down under capturing numerous championships in the same promotion that was once home to Rhea Ripley, Zaria brings an incredible blend of power and explosiveness to NXT where she lets her in-ring work and domineering presence do the talking. After forming a partnership with Sol Ruca known as ZaRuca, the pair won their first tag team match on 4 February 2025, though their alliance deteriorated after championship frustrations. Zaria turned on Ruca prior to Ruca’s NXT Women’s Championship match in February, facing her at NXT Stand & Deliver on 4 April with Ruca victorious, before Zaria defeated Ruca in a Last Women Standing match at NXT: Revenge on 21 April to end their feud as Ruca was promoted to the main roster.

The Australian powerhouse has been on a tear in NXT since tossing Sol Ruca off the perch and through a table, and after a dominant performance against Lizzy Rain, earned the right to be the No. 1 Contender to Paxley’s North American Title. Tatum Paxley agreed to put the Women’s North American Championship on the line against Zaria, with the match taking place on the June 9, 2026 NXT broadcast. Zaria will face her for the title for the very first time, and if she wins, she’ll get her very first WWE title, with her determination and the fact that Ruca’s having immediate success on the main roster potentially enough to guide her to victory.
