Before Alicia Foxx became the first Diva's Champion and Bianca Belair twirled her braid into a statementthere was Jacqueline MooreWWF's First African American Women's Champion. Boots lacedgloves offand ready to throw hands in an industry that barely knew what to do with a Black womanshe knew she wasn't there to play second fiddle. Moore didn't walk in. She barged in. And in doing soshe laid the foundation for the kind of nuancedpowerful Black storytelling we're beginning to see in pro wrestling today. Jacqueline's journey from watching wrestling as a child growing up in Dallasto becoming a WWE Hall of Famer is a tribute to her resilience and impact on the pro wrestling industry.

Growing up in DallasTexasJacqueline's fascination with wrestling was sparked by watching the Von Erich family dominate the local scene. Their gimmick captivated herplanting the seeds for a future in the squared circle she didn't foresee. A self-proclaimed tomboyshe immersed herself in sports and martial arts earning a third-degree black belt in taekwondo and gaining experience in kickboxing and traditional boxing. The foundation of discipline and toughness would become her hallmark in the wrestling world.

"Growing up in DallasI used to watch wrestling on TV," Moore tells BET. "One dayI saw an ad in the TV guide that said'Learn how to be a professional wrestler.' So I called the number. Signed up. The rest? History." That decision led her to train under the legendary Skandor Akbarwhere she was the only Black woman in the class. Undeterredshe honed her skillsoften training and competing against mensharpening her abilities and resolve.

Blazing the Trail Before There Was a Path

< data-emotion-css="1cgrwt0">.css-1cgrwt0{box-sizing:border-box;padding:24px 0;}.css-1cgrwt0 a{color:#0a0a0a;-webkit-text-decoration:underline;text-decoration:underline;}.css-1cgrwt0 a:hover,.css-1cgrwt0 a:focus{-webkit-text-decoration:none;text-decoration:none;}.css-1cgrwt0 b,.css-1cgrwt0 strong{font-weight:700;}

In the early '90sthere wasn't a blueprint for what a Black woman in pro wrestling could be. There was barely a space. "There weren't many Black women wrestlers," she says plainly. "I was it." But even as the lone Black woman in many roomsJacqueline didn't shrink. She got bookedand she got noticed. Moore didn't need permission to dominate. From Memphis to the national stageshe built her name brick by brick.

< data-emotion-css="1cgrwt0">.css-1cgrwt0{box-sizing:border-box;padding:24px 0;}.css-1cgrwt0 a{color:#0a0a0a;-webkit-text-decoration:underline;text-decoration:underline;}.css-1cgrwt0 a:hover,.css-1cgrwt0 a:focus{-webkit-text-decoration:none;text-decoration:none;}.css-1cgrwt0 b,.css-1cgrwt0 strong{font-weight:700;}

In the Attitude Erawhen WWE was all about shock valuerebellionand ratingsMoore wasn't just stepping into the ring; she was stepping into a whole cultural crossfire. Rocking bikinis on national television wasn't just about flaunting; it was the script women were handed. The era's storytelling often reduced female wrestlers to eye candysidelining their athleticism and intelligence in favor of skin-deep spectacle.

< data-emotion-css="115v5yi">.css-115v5yi{box-sizing:border-box;display:-webkit-box;display:-webkit-flex;display:-ms-flexbox;display:flex;-webkit-box-pack:center;-webkit-justify-content:center;-ms-flex-pack:center;justify-content:center;}.css-115v5yi > div{min-width:100%;}.css-115v5yi .twitter-tweet-rendered,.css-115v5yi .fb-post{min-width:65%;width:auto !important;}.css-115v5yi .exco{width:100%;}.css-115v5yi .tumblr-embed{margin-left:auto !important;margin-right:auto !important;}.css-115v5yi img{max-width:100%;width:100%;}.css-115v5yi > iframe{border:none;max-width:100%;}.css-115v5yi > *{max-width:none !important;}

Yeahshe wore bikinis but threw hands harder than half the male roster. She stood toe-to-toe with men and women alikemaking it clear: "I wasn't just a body; I was a force," Moore states. Still the industry's portrayal of women—especially Black women—was wrapped in stereotypes. The "strong Black woman" trope met the "exotic seductress" narrativetrapping Moore in a visual story that often overlooked the depth of her skill and legacy.

< data-emotion-css="1cgrwt0">.css-1cgrwt0{box-sizing:border-box;padding:24px 0;}.css-1cgrwt0 a{color:#0a0a0a;-webkit-text-decoration:underline;text-decoration:underline;}.css-1cgrwt0 a:hover,.css-1cgrwt0 a:focus{-webkit-text-decoration:none;text-decoration:none;}.css-1cgrwt0 b,.css-1cgrwt0 strong{font-weight:700;}

Moore was coded as a trailblazer in many ways and didn't appear to be a token. She carried herself with an intensity that couldn't be fakedand it bled through the screen.

< data-emotion-css="1cgrwt0">.css-1cgrwt0{box-sizing:border-box;padding:24px 0;}.css-1cgrwt0 a{color:#0a0a0a;-webkit-text-decoration:underline;text-decoration:underline;}.css-1cgrwt0 a:hover,.css-1cgrwt0 a:focus{-webkit-text-decoration:none;text-decoration:none;}.css-1cgrwt0 b,.css-1cgrwt0 strong{font-weight:700;}

"Yesmy matches always had an edge; that was all me. I cared about my performance and wanted fans to get their money's worth." She wantedand never quite gotthe chance to show everything she could do. "I wish they'd used me to my full potential," she says. "I had more to give."

< data-emotion-css="1cgrwt0">.css-1cgrwt0{box-sizing:border-box;padding:24px 0;}.css-1cgrwt0 a{color:#0a0a0a;-webkit-text-decoration:underline;text-decoration:underline;}.css-1cgrwt0 a:hover,.css-1cgrwt0 a:focus{-webkit-text-decoration:none;text-decoration:none;}.css-1cgrwt0 b,.css-1cgrwt0 strong{font-weight:700;}

While her presence was groundbreakingthe system around her hadn't caught up. She brought raw talent and unshakable confidence to a space that wanted her to smileposeand fade into the background.

< data-emotion-css="1cgrwt0">.css-1cgrwt0{box-sizing:border-box;padding:24px 0;}.css-1cgrwt0 a{color:#0a0a0a;-webkit-text-decoration:underline;text-decoration:underline;}.css-1cgrwt0 a:hover,.css-1cgrwt0 a:focus{-webkit-text-decoration:none;text-decoration:none;}.css-1cgrwt0 b,.css-1cgrwt0 strong{font-weight:700;}

The bikinis were part of the packaging but Jacqueline's power was always in the performance. She represented every Black girl watching who saw themselves in her fightnot just the glitter.

Witnessing the Evolution

In recent yearsprofessional wrestling has shifted towards more nuancedcharacter-driven storytellingparticularly for Black talent. Moore expressed her joy in witnessing this evolution"I'm so happy that Black wrestlersespecially Black women wrestlershave the opportunity to shine today. Black women are getting more TV time and getting more storylines. It really makes my heart happy."

< data-emotion-css="1cgrwt0">.css-1cgrwt0{box-sizing:border-box;padding:24px 0;}.css-1cgrwt0 a{color:#0a0a0a;-webkit-text-decoration:underline;text-decoration:underline;}.css-1cgrwt0 a:hover,.css-1cgrwt0 a:focus{-webkit-text-decoration:none;text-decoration:none;}.css-1cgrwt0 b,.css-1cgrwt0 strong{font-weight:700;}

She highlighted current WWE Superstars like Bianca BelairNaomiand Jade Cargill as examples of powerful representation. "They are very talentedbeautifulstrongand their characters are compelling. I love watching them. I'm so proud of them; they're given the opportunity to showcase their talents. They are putting on a great show."

< data-emotion-css="1cgrwt0">.css-1cgrwt0{box-sizing:border-box;padding:24px 0;}.css-1cgrwt0 a{color:#0a0a0a;-webkit-text-decoration:underline;text-decoration:underline;}.css-1cgrwt0 a:hover,.css-1cgrwt0 a:focus{-webkit-text-decoration:none;text-decoration:none;}.css-1cgrwt0 b,.css-1cgrwt0 strong{font-weight:700;}

Moore's story is one of resilienceauthenticityand influence. Starting from her humble beginnings in Dallasshe has made history in the WWE and paved the way for countless others. As the wrestling industry continues to evolveher contributions remain a cornerstone in the ongoing narrative of Black storytelling in professional wrestling.

When discussing Black storytelling in pro wrestlingJacqueline's name is at the top of the list. She didn't just perform; she proved that Black women belonged in every corner of the industry. From titles to toughnessshe redefined strength in a ring.

< data-emotion-css="1cgrwt0">.css-1cgrwt0{box-sizing:border-box;padding:24px 0;}.css-1cgrwt0 a{color:#0a0a0a;-webkit-text-decoration:underline;text-decoration:underline;}.css-1cgrwt0 a:hover,.css-1cgrwt0 a:focus{-webkit-text-decoration:none;text-decoration:none;}.css-1cgrwt0 b,.css-1cgrwt0 strong{font-weight:700;}
