Jordynne Grace Joins WWE: A Move for Financial Security and Future Goals

Jordynne Grace's Transition to WWE

Jordynne Grace has been a dominant figure in TNA's Knockouts Division, showcasing her strength and skill. However, in early 2025, she made the decision to join WWE, driven by a clear purpose.

In an interview with Zack Heydorn for Sports Illustrated’s The Takedown, Grace candidly shared her motivations for this career shift. While many might think her move was about the spotlight of a larger platform, she emphasized that financial stability was her primary concern, allowing her to prepare for life after wrestling.

“As a woman, especially, we historically don’t have the longest careers. I might want to have a child someday,” Grace stated, highlighting the importance of securing a better income.

“At some point, you have to start prioritizing financial growth, contributing to a 401k, and investing in the stock market—essentially, all the adult responsibilities,” she added.
