Professional wrestling career

WWE

NXT (2022–present)

On July 29, 2022, Ruggiero was one of fourteen people to have attended a tryout in Nashville, Tennessee, during SummerSlam weekend, where she and eight other women, were handed contracts by Paul "Triple H" Levesque.[2] In November 2022, it was confirmed that she had joined the Fall 2022 Rookie Class and reported to the WWE Performance Center.[1]

On October 17, 2023, Ruggiero appeared in her first televised match on NXT under her ring name Brinley Reece as a replacement for Jakara Jackson in the first round of the Women's NXT Breakout Tournament, after Jackson was ruled unable to compete medically.[3] Reece competed in a losing effort against Arianna Grace, who defeated her by raking her in the eyes and hitting her with a twisting slam.[4]

On the January 16, 2024, edition of NXT, Reece competed in a 20-woman battle royal for the chance to earn a number one contender's match against Lyra Valkyria for the NXT Women's Championship at Vengeance Day, but was unsuccessful in her efforts, as it was won by Roxanne Perez.[5]

On the August 20 edition of NXT, Reece took part in a six-woman gauntlet match to determine the number one contender for Roxanne Perez's NXT Women's Championship at NXT No Mercy, replacing Karmen Petrovic who had been ambushed in the parking lot by Izzi Dame. She would be eliminated from the match by Kendal Grey.[6]
