Former TNA Knockouts Champion Confirmed For 2026 Royal Rumble Match

WWE showed up in Montreal for their January 23 episode of SmackDown. With the Royal Rumble coming up on January 31, the show included a huge announcement about the Women’s Royal Rumble match.

There is no shortage of challengers for Jade Cargill’s Women’s Title. Although closed out Chelsea Green with a Jaded and a clean win this week, her night wasn’t over just yet.

Jordynne Grace stood at ringside and watched the whole match go down. Then she had something to say to Cargill after the match with Green was over.

After making it very clear that she is still after Jade Cargill’s title, Jordynne Grace confirmed that she will be in the 2026 Women’s Royal Rumble match. That was quite a statement, but Jade Cargill didn’t seem to let it bother her much.

Jade Cargill simply left as Jordynne Grace tried to step up to her. We will have to see if Grace is able to pull off a huge win at the Royal Rumble. This won’t be her first Royal Rumble match, since she competed in one as Knockouts Champion prior to even joining NXT.

Roman Reigns was also announced to be a part of the 2026 Men’s Royal Rumble match. Obviously, the company is going to give a ton of attention to this event, as it will start the road to WrestleMania 42.
