Description

Lea Mitchell (born October 22, 1998) is an American professional wrestler and former artistic gymnast. She is signed to WWE, where she performs on the NXT brand under the ring name Kelani Jordan. She is a former one-time and inaugural NXT Women's North American Champion.

Professional wrestling career
In August 2022, Mitchell signed a contract with WWE and reported to the WWE Performance Center. Mitchell made her in-ring debut by participating in a battle royal at a NXT live event on October 28. On June 27, 2023, at NXT: Gold Rush, Mitchell, under the ring name Kelani Jordan, made her on-screen debut as the protégé of Dana Brooke. However, the storyline was dropped when Brooke was released on September 21. Jordan was announced as a participant in 2023 NXT Women's Breakout Tournament, defeating Izzi Dame in the first round and Arianna Grace in the semifinal, but lost to Lola Vice in the final at Night 2 of NXT: Halloween Havoc. On the November 28 episode of NXT, Jordan defeated Kiana James to advance for the Iron Survivor Challenge at NXT Deadline, but failed to win the match at the event.

In early 2024, Jordan and Fallon Henley formed a temporary partnership with Chase University's Thea Hail. At NXT Stand & Deliver on April 6, 2024, Jordan, Hail and Henley defeated Jacy Jayne, Kiana James and Izzi Dame in a six-woman tag team match. On the May 28 episode of NXT, Jordan defeated Wren Sinclair to qualify for a spot for the six-woman ladder match to crown the inaugural NXT Women's North American Champion at NXT Battleground on June 9, where she won the ladder match to become the inaugural NXT Women's North American Champion. On the June 18 episode of NXT, Jordan defeated Michin after interference from Jaida Parker in her first title defense. In September, Jordan feuded with Fatal Influence (Jacy Jayne, Fallon Henley, and Jazmyn Nyx), who had set their sights on the NXT Women's North American Championship. At NXT Halloween Havoc on October 27, Jordan defended the title against Fatal Influence in a gauntlet match, managing to defeat Nyx and Jayne but ultimately lost the title to Henley, ending her reign at 140 days.

On January 7, 2025 at NXT: New Year's Evil, Jordan faced Cora Jade, Stephanie Vaquer, and Lola Vice in a Fatal four-way match to determine the number one contender for the NXT Women's North American Championship which was won by Vaquer, who subsequently won the title. On the April 1 episode of NXT, Jordan defeated Roxanne Perez to qualify for the six-woman ladder match for the vacant NXT Women's North American Championship (vacated by Vaquer on the same night) at NXT Stand & Deliver.

Personal life
Mitchell is currently in a relationship with fellow professional wrestler Christian Brigham, known professionally as Carmelo Hayes. They started dating in 2023. On July 5, 2025, Mitchell announced that she and Brigham got engaged on July 1.

She cites Bianca Belair, Bryan Danielson, and Rob Van Dam as her inspirations in wrestling.
