The March 21 episode of TNA IMPACT was headlined by Jordynne Grace defending her Knockouts World Championship against Tasha Steelz.
Grace initially took control, but when they spilled to the outside, Steelz neutralized the champ with a pump kick and neckbreaker. After the break, Grace fought back with a wicked spinebuster and attempted a Muscle Buster, but Steelz escaped.
The two then went counter for counter until Steelz landed Sliced Bread. Steelz managed to launch Grace from the top rope to the mat for a nearfall. After another round of trading counters, Grace hit the spinning backfist followed by the Juggernaut Driver to retain.
Elsewhere in the show, Ash By Elegance had her third match, this time against Seleziya Sparx. Sparx refused to kiss Ash’s hand, which resulted in punishment for most of the bout. In the end, a suplex followed by Rarified Air finished the bout for Ash.
After, Ash prepared to hit Rarified Air again, but this time with a chair on top of Sparx. That was until Xia Brookside ran down and stood between them. Ash ultimately backed down and signaled that she’s watching Brookside.
We also heard from Decay and MK Ultra, who look to be clashing again soon as both teams have their eyes on Spitfire’s tag titles.
Next week, the first Knockouts 8-4-1 match will take place to determine who will challenge Jordynne Grace at Rebellion. Participants were not revealed, but the bout will start as an 8-woman tag. The winning team with then face off in a four-way to determine the new number one contender.
