As noted before, Jordynne Grace’s contract with TNA Wrestling expired earlier this month and recently signed a new contract with WWE.
A recent episode of the Insight with Chris Van Vliet podcast featured Grace as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Grace’s thoughts about her decision to leave TNA.
“I’ve been at TNA for a very long time. Since 2018 and I’ve never let my contract expire before. I’ve always just re-signed and I don’t know if it was just the uncertainty of not knowing what was going to happen next or I was just scared that no one was gonna want me, but, I feel like now, I’m more confident and I had an amazing 2024 and I think it’s time. I’ve done so much in TNA, I’ve done pretty much all there is to do and I feel like if there was ever a time to move forward, it would be right now.”
Grace also gave her thoughts and how TNA let her out of her contract early and her belief that she would have stayed had former TNA President Scott D’Amore still been in charge of the company.
“Well, when he left — I was very emotional when he left, like a lot of other people because it was just so out of the blue. We found out on a Zoom call. It was very corporate, I feel like, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing but, at the time, I was just like, you know what? I only really signed here because I had faith in Scott (D’Amore) that he was gonna do good things for me and good things for the company. He’s the one that kind of set in motion the whole rebirth of TNA and I told them I wanted my contract to be cut basically. So it was supposed to be until October of this year, and I was like, I want to get out in January of this year and I mean, kudos to them. They heard me and they let me. So, I’m very lucky for that. But, I think probably I’d still be here. I’d still be at TNA.”
