Jordynne Grace entrance on WWE NXT

The back and forth between TNA and WWE continued at Against All Odds as one NXT star answered an open challenge for the Knockouts Title.

TNA Knockouts Champion Jordynne Grace was the surprise choice to challenge Roxanne Perez for the NXT Women’s Championship at Battleground. Grace had made her WWE debut while still part of TNA at the 2024 Royal Rumble and the relationship between the two companies saw her competing for title gold in the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.

Grace looked to be well in control of the bout when Tatum Paxley appeared and looked to leave with her TNA Knockouts Title. However, a former WWE star who now works in TNA stopped her as Ash By Elegance – formerly known as Dana Brooke – made a surprise appearance. Grace clocked both women with her title but the distraction served to give Perez time to recover and she went on to hit Pop Rocks to pick up the win.
