Bully Ray: I Think The Crossover With NXT And TNA Has Helped TNA Out Tremendously

Bully Ray likes the crossover between NXT and TNA.

In the second half of 2024, NXT and TNA have built up a working relationship that has seen stars from both rosters cross over on a regular basis. Jordynne Grace and Joe Hendry challenged for the NXT Women's Championship and the NXT Championship, respectively, at NXT premium live events. The crossover continued with NXT's 2300 Arena event, as Grace competed in a ten-woman tag team match.
