TNA's Jordynne Grace Makes Surprise Appearance At WWE Royal Rumble

TNA Wrestling was represented at the WWE Royal Rumble.

It emerged ahead of the show that Jordynne Grace was planned for the women's Royal Rumble and the TNA Knockouts World Champion, despite claiming she was at home, did in fact enter the women's Royal Rumble at #5. She quickly had a moment with former TNA rival Naomi (who made her return to WWE following a run in TNA as Trinity) as the two women embraced before pummelling each other in the face. 

Grave then continued to have big moments in the match before eventually being eliminated by Bianca Belair. The elimination came after a back-and-forth on the apron which Belair won with a KOD on the hardest part of the ring. 

According to reports, Grace's appearance does not mean she is signing with WWE. 'Thick Momma Pump' is signed to a multi-year deal with TNA Wrestling, having returned to the promotion in September 2023. She has been a part of IMPACT/TNA since 2018 and is currently in her third reign as Knockouts World Champion, having beaten Trinity at Hard To Kill. 

If Grace will be making more WWE appearances following the Rumble is unknown.
