Jordynne Grace talked about her WWE debut

During an interview with Fightful, Jordynne Grace said she did not tell anyone about her WWE debut at the 2024 Royal Rumble because she was scared that her surprise appearance would be leaked beforehand.

Grace also mentioned that some people ruined the surprise of her Rumble appearance but fans were still shocked to see her.

"I didn't tell anybody besides, obviously, like my husband, but I didn't tell any wrestlers because I was (...) I was so scared of like, anything getting out (...) which of course it did anyways, but it could have gotten a lot (...) you didn't do it, you didn't do it, but other people of course did it, ruining the surprise (...) you can't have surprises in pro wrestling anymore. But yeah, people were shocked," she said.

Jordynne Grace is set to lock horns with Stevie Turner on next week's edition of NXT before facing Roxanne Perez at Battleground. It will be interesting to see who will come out on top when Grace battles Perez.
