Last night, current TNA Knockouts World Champion Jordynne Grace shocked the wrestling world when she appeared on WWE NXT and challenged current NXT Women’s champion Roxanne Perez for her title at the upcoming Battleground Premium Live Event.
After appearing in the Royal Rumble match back in January, Jordynne Grace thanked the WWE Universe told us that “this won’t be the last you’ll see of TNA”, and clearly she was right.
Tonight, PWInsider.com has an update to this relationship and where it stands.
The word backstage at tonight’s WWE NXT taping was that Jordynne Grace appearing on WWE NXT Battleground will not be the only WWE-TNA collaboration in the days ahead.
The belief among those we’ve spoken with is that there will be some sort of NXT representation on future TNA events and programming as well, although we haven’t heard how much that could be and whether it could be anyone beyond Roxanne Perez.
TNA’s next live event the Against All Odds PLE on 6/14 from Cicero Stadium just outside of Chicago – just 5 days after Battleground – which will be followed by a day of television tapings on 6/15 as the company continues its road to Slammiversary on 7/20 in Montreal, Canada.
The 6/14 and 6/15 shows are the next few where it’s possible we could see some NXT talent show up on TNA programming.
Make sure you watch Jordynne Grace and all the stars of TNA WRESTLING EVERY Thursday!
