Jordynne Grace exposed a severe ankle injury through a video released before WWE SmackDown aired last night at the Moda Center in Portland, Oregon. The injury occurred during a match against Alba Fyre from The Secret Service, scheduled to broadcast next week on WWE Main Event. The unexpected injury abruptly ended the contest, leading to an unlikely win for Fyre as Grace was forced out of the match early due to the ankle issue.
The SmackDown superstar shared a slow-motion video on social media, captioning it with, “My ankle glitched irl.”

Fortunately, fellow wrestler Chelsea Green quickly assisted Grace by lending her wheelchair, which Green has been using recently due to her own broken ankle. This gesture showed solidarity between the performers amid the challenging circumstances.
Maintaining Humor Despite the Setback
Injuries are difficult for any athlete and especially painful during the lead-up to a major event like WrestleMania. Despite the predicament, Jordynne Grace appeared to handle the situation with a sense of humor, lightening the mood with amusing social media posts. She was fitted with a medical boot similar to the one Chelsea Green wears. Later, Grace shared photos showcasing the two as “ankle sisters,” embracing their shared injuries.

A Note on WWE SmackDown’s Recent Events and Reactions
On the same night as Grace’s injury, the wrestler Danhausen made his WWE SmackDown debut, involving himself in a storyline where he cursed The Miz for declining to be his mentor. This was notable following Dominik Mysterio’s mishap on Raw earlier in the week. Although it is improbable that Danhausen’s curse caused Grace’s injury, she publicly questioned the WWE Superstar’s intentions.
