TNA and WWE will crossover for the very first time this Sunday, June 9, at NXT Battleground.
For the first time ever, TNA and WWE will crossover for NXT Battleground this Sunday. Roxanne Perez will put the NXT Women's Championship on the line against Jordynne Grace , the current TNA Knockouts World Champion. Grace made her WWE debut in the Royal Rumble earlier this year which was said to have impressed many WWE higher-ups.
Perez and Grace have never faced off against each other before, as Perez only appeared in TNA once. She and Deonna Purrazzo went head-to-head putting both the AAA Reina de Reinas and ROH Women's Championships on the line. Purrazzo ended up defeating the young champion as she would quickly move up to NXT shortly after.
Roxanne Perez Was Shocked By Jordynne Grace Reveal on NXTGrace's NXT appearance shocked many fans, but they weren't the only ones stunned by her debut. Perez herself apparently had no idea that her opponent would be Grace and she found out in that moment. Perez told Denise Salcedo of Instinct Culture that she had a few names she was tossing around like Tegan Nox and Naomi, but none of them were outside of the WWE.
"I had no idea it was going to be Jordynne. The weeks leading up to it, I was pretty excited to see who I was going to face and who was going to step inside the ring with me," Perez said."It ended up being Jordynne Grace. That was not even one of the name that crossed my mind because she is with TNA. It's so cool that we get to make this history and be part of some ground breaking stuff."The show won't only be making history for the historic NXTNA crossover.
