Jakara Jackson to debut on WWE NXT Level Up
Jakara Jackson is set to make her WWE television debut on this week’s NXT Level Up against Thea Hail.
Jackson, real name Jamara Garrett, was part of the SummerSlam weekend tryouts in Las Vegas, Nevada in 2021. Jackson suffered a concussion during the in-ring portion of her tryout, but was later offered a WWE contract by Paul “Triple H” Levesque.
