Well it would need context. Good for Jordynne getting a chance in the Rumble even though she won't win it.

That is UBER cool IMO. One it gives exposure to her and TNA on a big stage. Shows that the current regime is not afraid of other companies doing good and in the case of TNA they realize TNA is helping make wrestlers better. Two it explains the returning woman's absence. I mean she did not fall off the face of the Earth. This shows she was doing great things and helps build her back up to a contender right off the bat. Hopefully WWE and TNA can work together unofficially. TNA build talent that can go to WWE for bigger exposure and paychecks while talent that are spinning their wheels in WWE can come to TNA and work a solid program and get better before trying again in WWE.

I don't think Jordynne Grace had any eliminations tonight, but she she looked good and lasted for awhile.

That's pretty cool that Grace appeared at the Rumble, it seems like the WWE allowing a current TNA champ to be part of a show to going back to when they allowed AJ Styles to make a video appearance for Impact, that they're fine working with Anthem is small ways, cool stuff...

I'll say it, I like the Dirty Dango, Alpha Bravo & Oleg Prudius trio... Even though Dirty Dango hates pro wrestling!

On TNA+ they had exclusive footage of Grace at the Rumble, a neat thing...

Here is a thought I had. I wonder if WWE working with/mentioning them is partly motivated by the Taylor Swift/Travis Kelce situation. WWE might realize that cross exposure can be helpful to both.

I think a different mindset is going on with the WWE now that Vince is out, so a relationship of some kind could be good for both sides if only in small ways...

I mean it is a small market, but I am sure there are people out there that watch TNA but do not want to watch WWE. However, if they see something like a TNA star in the Rumble or in some other way, they might tune in to watch. The big advantage for WWE working with TNA is if they are interested in TNA talent, they can work with TNA to get exposure for the star in TNA and help them develop certain things before the star moves on to the WWE. TNA can even let them out of their contract early so they can move to WWE that works on WWE's timetable. This way WWE can have talent develop without WWE spending the time and money on them.
