00:00Scott called me, I had actually just landed from our tapings that we did in Orlando.
00:08And I was waking up and he called, he was like, oh, how do you feel about wrestling this weekend?
00:12And I was just thinking to myself, oh my God, what do I have? What does he want me to do?
00:17And he was like, how do you feel about being in the Rumble?
00:20And I was like, what? What are you talking about?
00:24And he just said, yeah, how do you feel about being in the Rumble?
00:28And I was like, did they ask? And then he goes, no, they didn't ask.
00:32I just want you to be there and just jump the barricade.
00:34And honestly, to me, that was more realistic than WWE calling TNA and being like, can your women's champion be in our Rumble?
00:44I am Jennifer and I am Jordan's mom.
00:47I was shocked when she called me and told me I was really surprised.
00:51I know this has been her dream since she was nine years old.
00:55It was very important for me to be here today.
00:57My husband and her stepbrother came, took us 22 hours to get here.
01:03We drove.
01:08It didn't feel real until I actually got my flight confirmation here into Tampa.
01:13I was just like, there's no way this is going to happen.
01:16Like something's going to happen, something's going to come up because it's wrestling.
01:18Something always happens.
01:21But today, now that I'm here and this is being recorded, obviously it's happening, right?
01:26I know a lot of people get like new gear for the Rumble.
01:28Obviously, I'd have time.
01:29But fortunately, I'm representing TNA the best way that I can.
01:34TNA colors.
01:35So it'll be good.
01:38When this was told to me and it started to get set into motion, I was scared.
01:43Like it wasn't more, it was a butterfly.
01:45It was more terror because this is huge for me personally.
01:49And I feel like it's such a big thing to be representing TNA.
01:53I'm the only person going to be there representing TNA in front of 50,000 people live, millions of people worldwide.
02:00So I just, I was scared.
02:02But today, fortunately, I feel very confident because I know that all you can do is prepare.
02:08And I feel very, very prepared to represent TNA.
02:10I have this bag of chicken because I know that I'm not even going to be able to step foot into WWE catering
02:17because they have like all the cookies and cakes and I can't handle that right now.
02:22I just want her to really just soak it all in today.
02:25I don't want her to be nervous, although that's asking a lot.
02:28I want her to just do what she does.
02:31She'll be fine.
02:35I love you.
02:36I love you too.
02:38I'll be recording everything.
02:40Okay, good.
02:42I need the footage.
02:44I'm going to do my very best to remind myself to just drink in the moment, slow down, look around me.
02:51Because these moments, it only happens once in your life.
02:55Me making my WWE debut in front of all these people, it's only going to happen one time.
02:59So I'm just going to do my very best to drink it all in.
03:04Brand new belt.
03:07When Gail found out about this, she was like, oh my God, the white belt is going to be on WWE TV.
03:12I'm going to cry.
03:15From the moment that I got the call, the gears shifted and I knew like, this is it.
03:21You have to be better than you ever have and you have to do it in one week.
03:30Bye Kristen, thank you.
03:34I'm looking forward to just celebrating.
03:37I feel like this is a huge thing for me, a big thing for the company.
03:40And I'm looking forward to all the people that don't know.
03:43Like this is a big surprise and a lot of my friends don't know.
03:46Some of them do, some of them don't.
03:47But my friends are going to be so surprised and probably a little mad that I didn't tell them.
03:52But I'm looking forward to them finally knowing and just being able to share that with everybody.
04:05I'm at the Rumble.
04:06I did my makeup already.
04:08And this is what the stadium looks like.
04:12I'm just ready to go out there and, fingers crossed, represent TNA and kill it.
04:18There's no other option really, I have to.
04:21When the buzzer hits, I feel like at that point, it's game time.
04:26No, this has been her dream since she was nine years old.
04:29This is huge for me personally and I feel like it's such a big thing to be representing TNA.
04:38And yet another surprise in this Royal Rumble.
04:45Jordan Grace!
04:47What the f***?
04:49What is going on?
04:51It is Jordan Grace!
04:56TNA! TNA!
04:58It's Jordan Grace!
04:59Oh my God, Jordan Grace!
05:01TNA Knockouts champion, Jordan Grace!
05:05This is the woman who defeated Naomi to become champion.
05:08Holy s***!
05:11Jordan Grace!
05:13What?
05:14When Gail found out about this, she was like, oh my God, the white belt is going to be on WWE TV.
05:20I'm going to cry.
05:23The white belt?
05:24Jordan Grace taking out everyone in a tournament suplex delivered to Bayley.
05:31TNA! TNA! TNA!
05:35Yes!
05:38F***ing Jordan Grace in the Royal Rumble!
05:42She's doing so good.
05:43Oh, Gail.
05:45This is the TNA champion.
05:46Yes, Candice LeWay.
05:48TNA's got an absolute weapon.
05:51Jordan Grace.
05:55Very big surprise, to be honest, which is just cool seeing someone come from a different world.
06:00Jordan Grace coming here from TNA.
06:03You know, once I got in there, it was just like wrestling at any other place, to be honest.
06:07Just with 50 times as many people as I normally wrestle in front of.
06:10So, I think my home is truly in the ring.
06:13I want to thank Ben for allowing her to be here to participate in the Royal Rumble.
06:16I thought she had a spectacular showing tonight. She's an amazing talent.
06:20From the moment that I got the call, the gears shifted and I knew, like, this is it.
06:26You have to be better than you ever have.
06:33You
