At Thursday’s NXT live event in Orlando, Florida, Christy St. Cloud introduced fans to NXT’s first full-time female referee, Jessika.

Jessika wrestled on the independent circuit under the name Kennadi Brink before signing a contract recently with WWE to work as a referee.

Here are photos of St. Cloud introducing Jessika.

She responded to the above tweet confirming the spelling of her name as Jessika, and not ‘Jessica.’

Jessika was the referee for a match between Lars Sullivan and Kishan Raftaar. It was announced as the first time that a female has refereed a male match in NXT history.

Jessika has appeared as a referee before for NXT but in women’s matches. She worked some Florida shows back in March before signing a contract.
