Elayna Black (Cora Jade) recently spoke on "The Ariel Helwani Show" about alleged body shaming she experienced during her time in NXT. Black stated she received "constant comments" about her physique after joining at age 19 and weighing 110 pounds."I remember specifically being told that I wasn't and wouldn't be champion in that company because I looked like I couldn't crack an egg." Black mentioned these comments, especially from men to a young woman, "created, like, a lot of issues for me, body wise." She also felt that WWE's strength and conditioning program at the time was not tailored to her specific needs, despite the criticism she faced regarding her appearance

I love the fact that they have as much creative freedom as they do.I'm so much for storylines and character, so I feel like they are very like creatively free in that way."- Elayna Black's take on being a free agent Via Ariel Helwani show
