Early life[]

Baker High School, where she played soccer and scored 60 goals and 19 assists in her varsity career. Gentile attended West Virginia University (WVU) majoring in global supply chain management. She also played soccer as part of the WVU sports program and went on to play as a forward for Icelandic club UMF Afturelding.
Professional wrestling career[]
On November 10, 2022, Gentile was announced as having signed with WWE as part of the WWE Performance Center Fall 2022 Rookie Class. She made her in-ring debut at a live event on the August 18, 2023, teaming with Elektra Lopez and Lola Vice to defeat Jacy Jayne, Jaida Parker, and Kiana James in a six-woman tag team match.
In January 2024, now under the ring name Jazmyn Nyx, she began appearing as a student at Chase University and befriended fellow student Jacy Jayne, even participating in Jayne's "2024 Ladies of Chase U" calendar sold at NXT Vengeance Day to save Chase U out of debt. On the February 20 episode of NXT, Nyx and Thea Hail accompanied Jayne at ringside where Nyx used underhanded tactics to help Jayne win the match to Hail's disdain, thus establishing herself as a heel. Over the following weeks, Nyx and Jayne would mock Hail calling her a "loser" which led to Hail snapping at them on the March 12 episode of NXT. On the following week, Nyx and Jayne turned on Chase U and costed Riley Osborne the NXT Heritage Cup championship match against No Quarter Catch Crew's Drew Gulak.
On the March 26 episode of NXT, Nyx made her televised in-ring debut against Hail where she was defeated. On April 30 at Week 2 of Spring Breakin', Hail defeated Jayne, where Jayne legitimately broke her nose during the match. On the May 14 episode of NXT, Nyx attacked Hail after her match with Fallon Henley, vowing to get revenge on Hail for injuring Jayne. On the June 4 episode of NXT, Nyx defeated Hail to earn her first televised singles win. On the July 9 episode of NXT, Jayne and Nyx formed an alliance with Henley, who took issue with rookies getting more opportunities in NXT. Despite Nyx being a rookie herself, she was given an exception by Jayne and Henley. This alliance would be short lived as Nyx would be called up to the main roster shortly afterwards, debuting on the SmackDown brand on the July 26th episode.

Gentile is currently dating fellow wrestler Jake Anderson.
