Next week on Saturday, TNA heads to Detroit for Bound for Glory. But, tonight on TNA Impact! the Knockouts look to rekindle and even discover some held grudges.
Knockouts action kicks off with Ash By Elegance, of course along with her personal concierge. The NXT and TNA liaison, Arianna Grace, comes out to introduce Ash’s opponent, Brinley Reece.
Ash looks to have the strength advantage during the onset of the match but ends up underestimating Reece. “The Elegant One” attempts to get a touch-up, but Reece manages to make her look more of a hot mess.
Reece fires up against Ash using her athletic prowess, but George Iceman looks to provide a distraction for Ash to hit Rarified Air for the win. Post-match, Iceman announces that they’re in the business of makeovers and next week there will be a VIP launch party for Heather Reckless. But tonight, they decide to give a makeover to Reece welcoming her to TNA.
Long-time rival of Ash, Xia Brookside, makes the save for the NXT Superstar. But, the work done by Ash has left its mark.
Next, it is announced tonight that the Knockouts Tag Team Champions, Spitfire, will defend their titles against Rosemary and NXT’s Wendy Choo at Bound for Glory. The haunting duo has been terrorizing both TNA and NXT for the past few months, and now the two look to capture the gold just in time before All Hallow’s Eve.
The Knockouts World Champion, Jordynne Grace, looks to have a sit-down with Masha Slamovich after some tension between the two friends had been building for a while. Slamovich says during Grace’s title reign the entire spotlight has been on her. Grace says that she’s beaten her before, but she’s one of the toughest competitors she’s ever faced. Slamovich wants to finally prove that she’s a different version of herself, and that come Bound for Glory, the title will come home with her.
What did you think of tonight’s TNA Impact? What will Reckless look like come this launch party? Can Slamovich finally prove herself? Let us know in the comments below!
