The \'Forbidden Door\' is open in WWE after TNA Knockout Champion Jordynne Grace appeared on the May 28 episode of NXT. Grace answered the challenge to take on NXT Women\'s Champion Roxanne Perez for the title at NXT Battleground on June 9. After the surprising appearance, both talents from WWE and TNA Wrestling have shared an interest in facing each other on social media.
Several notable names like X-Division Champion Mustafa Ali and WWE superstar Cedric Alexander have pitched on X facing each other after Grace NXT\'s debut. While fans are also pitching dream matches from both companies, Drew McIntyre has officially put his name out to go through the \'Forbidden Door.\'
On X, \'The Scottish Warrior\' shared a picture of himself holding the TNA World Heavyweight Championship and wrote \"Doors Open Both Ways.\"
Longtime TNA fans may recall that McIntyre had a successful run with the company from 2015 to 2017. The crowning moment of his TNA career was when he won the TNA World Heavyweight Championship by defeating Matt Hardy on an episode of Impact Wrestling on March 15, 2016. \'The Scottish Warrior\' held the title for almost three months before dropping it to Bobby Lashley at TNA Slammiversary on June 12.
McIntyre\'s interest in working with TNA again makes fans curious whether WWE will allow him. The cocky superstar is currently involved in a feud with WWE World Heavyweight Champion Damian Priest and will challenge for the title at Clash At The Castle next month. WWE may keep McIntyre focused on preparing for his homecoming event.
Regardless, one TNA talent has responded to his post.

In response to McIntyre\'s tease, TNA World Champion Moose warned him about wanting to cross over. Moose shared a photo on X from a win over McIntyre for the Impact Grand Championship on an episode of Impact Wrestling on March 2, 2017.

McIntyre has yet to respond to Moose\'s comments, but it does create intrigue for a potential rematch between them. It\'s unclear what WWE and TNA have planned beyond Grace challenging Perez at NXT Battleground. However, the online interactions between WWE and TNA talent are exciting fans for what is to come.
