Monday, January 26, 2026-WWE has confirmed that former TNA Knockouts World Champion Jordynne Grace will be one of the entrants in the Women’s Royal Rumble match at the 2026 WWE Royal Rumble, set for January 31 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Grace’s participation was officially announced during the January 23 episode of SmackDown, where she declared herself for the 30‑woman battle royal as part of the larger build to WrestleMania 42.
Grace is no stranger to the Royal Rumble format; she previously competed in the 2024 and 2025 Women’s Royal Rumble matches while still representing TNA, making notable appearances and showcasing her athletic ability. Since officially signing with WWE and being called up to the SmackDown roster earlier this year, her involvement in the 2026 Royal Rumble signals an elevated role within WWE’s women’s division.
Her inclusion adds established star power and crossover intrigue to a women’s Rumble field that already features multiple former WWE champions and top contenders. As the Road to WrestleMania continues, Grace’s participation could position her for a major title opportunity if she can outlast her competitors in the historic battle royal.
