From cheering in the front row to fighting for a chance at championship gold — Izzy Moreno’s story just keeps getting better.
The indie standout, best remembered by longtime fans as Bayley’s young superfan during NXT’s black-and-gold era, is now looking to carve her own path in the squared circle. And she’s eyeing a major opportunity: a spot in WWE ID’s Championship Tournament during WrestleMania Week.
Izzy made her intentions clear in a fired-up video posted to her social media, where she threw her name into the mix for the upcoming WWE ID Championship Tournament set to take place at GCW’s event on April 16 in Las Vegas.
“What if…..I mean what if @WWEID called me to be in the opening round of the WWE ID Championship tournament at @GCWrestling_ on April 16th in Las Vegas?” she teased.
“No more what ifs…. Izzy Moreno is ready for the WWE ID championship tournament! 😤 💪”
The WWE ID account wasted no time responding — and they didn’t hand her a spot. Instead, they handed her a challenge.
Izzy will have to earn her way into the tournament by defeating rising WWE ID prospect Zara Zakher in a non-tournament qualifier match at the April 16 GCW show. It’s a high-stakes moment for both women, with the winner securing a spot in the actual WWE ID Championship Tournament bracket.
“You have a world of potential, Izzy,” WWE ID wrote in response. “However, you have to earn your way into the WWE ID Championship tournament.”
This sets the stage for what could be a breakout moment for Moreno, who’s been grinding on the independent scene while sharpening her in-ring game. Though she’s still early in her career, the buzz around her name — thanks to both her childhood connection to WWE and her growing credibility as a performer — makes this upcoming clash with Zakher one to watch.
For Izzy, this isn’t just about nostalgia. It’s about proving she belongs in the ring with today’s top prospects and tomorrow’s superstars.
April 16 in Vegas could be the night she flips the script from “superfan” to “serious contender.”
