Jordynne Grace says what you see today, a multiple time TNA champion isn't how she started. She says she wasn't scouted or had star power. She wasn't a beauty queen. She says she had negative aura. She tried to fit in a world that didn't seem built for her. She says she had self awareness. She stopped wishing she had what she was supposed to have and she built what she could become. She turned doubt into discipline and that was the day the Juggernaut was born. She became laser focused into turning her body into an atomic bomb. As hard as that was, she was obsessed with it. She could stand out and that was the only way. She wanted everyone to talk about what she was doing in TNA. She says she put in the work so no one would forget about her. She made everyone believe in her. She has the chance to become NXT Women's Champion and she is aware of what she needs to do to win her first women's championship.

We go to comments from Giulia.
She says she watched Stephanie bask in the glory of being a double champion. She waited for her to give her a rematch but it never happened. Friendships only go so far when it comes to the Women's Championship. She reminded Stephanie of what Beautiful Madness is. She does not know Jaida but she appears confident. She likes to dish out punishment but she doesn't like to take it. Jordynne is very strong but she will introduce her to strong style. Jordynne and Jaida are obstacles in her way to Stephanie. She says her goal was to win the NXT Women's Championship. Losing it only made her more dangerous. No friends at Stand and Deliver. She introduced herself at last year's Stand and Deliver. She leaves this year as the Women's Champion.
