WWE made waves in the wrestling community by unveiling Jordynne Grace as the contender to Roxanne Perez’s NXT Women’s Championship at NXT Battleground. This marks the first time the title will be contested at the PLE against a competitor from another promotion.
Hailing from Impact Wrestling, Grace’s recent cameo sets the stage for a showdown with Stevie Turner, slated to kick off the event. Grace’s appearance has fueled speculation that other luminaries from her promotion might grace NXT in the near future.
Rumors swirled regarding TNA sensation Joe Hendry’s potential NXT appearance, potentially lining up a Battleground bout. However, an update from Fightful Select indicates Hendry’s absence from Orlando, likely sidelining him for this week’s show.
“For those asking about Joe Hendry possibly showing up on NXT television, we hadn’t heard of any other TNA talent being seen in Orlando ahead of tonight’s show. Jordynne Grace’s match with Stevie Turner is set to open tonight’s show.”
Despite Hendry’s absence, WWE still has time to craft additional matchups leading up to the event. The unfolding developments promise an intriguing journey for the brand in the weeks ahead.
Do you think Joe Hendry would make an appearance on NXT tonight? Let us know in the comments section below.
