Former TNA Knockouts World Champion Ash By Elegance has re-signed<\/a> <\/span>with TNA Wrestling. Voted as both Knockout of the Year and part of the Knockouts Tag Team of the Year for 2025, Ash By Elegance’s continued commitment to TNA will be welcomed by wrestling fans around the world. The leader of The Elegance Brand broke the news this afternoon in an interview<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere have been so many amazing things that have happened in the last couple of weeks, since TNA’s debut on AMC. One of those things is that I got some amazing news from my medical team and the doctors, that I am medically cleared. And I am very excited to announce that I have re-signed with TNA. It\u2019s great to have a company that\u2019s behind me and is holding my hand every step of the way.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

At TNA Victory Road<\/a><\/span>, Ash by Elegance announced her retirement and vacated the TNA Knockouts World title. The news came as a true shocker. She quickly became a TNA producer and backstage agent, while continuing to be associated with the Elegance Brand on TV. Even if Ash has never revealed why she had to retire, the fact is that the Knockout is now cleared and back in action. Last week, on Thursday Night iMPACT, she proved it when she hit TNA Knockouts World Champion L\u00e9i Ying Lee with the Kiss My Ash<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n

Elayna Black<\/h2>\n

Elayna Black, one of the most exciting rising stars in professional wrestling, has signed with TNA Wrestling. She confirmed the news this morning during a live interview on Busted Open on SiriusXM<\/a><\/span>. The signing marks a homecoming for Black, who began wrestling in 2018 and made her first TNA appearance in 2019.<\/p>\n

Hailing from Chicago, Illinois, Black trained under Bryce Benjamin, Isaias Velasquez, and TNA\u2019s own Mustafa Ali. She dropped out of school at age 15 to pursue her wrestling career full-time. Black has enjoyed success worldwide, including an acclaimed death match in 2020.<\/p>\n

Joining the WWE NXT brand in 2021, using the name Cora Jade, Black won the NXT Women’s Tag Team Championship and made history by becoming the youngest-ever NXT WarGames competitor, a match in which she famously executed a high-risk dive from the top of the steel cage.<\/p>\n

She was introduced as TNA Wrestling\u2019s newest Knockout on January 15 during the premiere of Thursday Night iMPACT! on AMC and now has her sights set on the prestigious TNA Knockouts World Championship. She is set to compete on Thursday Night iMPACT tomorrow night.<\/p>\n
