Jordynne Grace suffered a heartbreaking loss at the hands of NXT Women’s Champion, Roxanne Perez. However, that wasn’t the most painful thing she had to endure, as her earring was forced out, causing her to bleed from her ear. In the aftermath of the match, The Last Pure Athlete took to social media to address the incident.

The True Pure Athlete took to X and made a special announcement regarding her earrings. She stated that they would be “retiring” from in-ring action, meaning that following the incident, she decided not to wear them. The match included some outside interference, as Tatum Paxley came out and showed her obsession with Jordynne Grace’s TNA Knockouts title.

However, the crowd was in for a surprise as Ash By Elegance, formerly known as Dana Brooke, came out and tried to snatch the title from the hands of Paxley. After The Big Mama Pump thwarted them both with her belt, it was all the time Roxanne Perez needed. She retained the title by hitting Grace with the Pop Rox. Speaking about her injury, a similar incident occurred in her match against Allysin Kay back in May.

After the loss, she shared a post on X, admitting that her time would surely come. It could be speculated from her statement that the WWE Universe will see a lot more of her in the future. At TNA’s Against All Odds, Grace will be putting a title on the line in an open challenge. It wouldn’t be a surprise if someone from WWE answered her open challenge.

The 28-year-old star took to X and shared how much of a fan she was of Gail Kim. She considered herself so lucky that the former Divas Champion was present to watch her match against Roxanne Perez. Moreover, Grace also called Kim the greatest women’s wrestler of all time.

The 47-year-old wrestler may not have had the best WWE run, but she was one of the best wrestlers in TNA. She won multiple championships, clinching the WWE Women’s Championship in her debut match. After holding the title for only four weeks, she was caught off guard by her release from the company after just five months.
