She is currently 124-days into her second IMPACT Knockouts title reign having successfully defended her title against <strong>Rosemary, Taya Valkyrie<\/strong>, and <strong>ODB<\/strong>. Rok-C is one of the fastest rising stars in the rich Texas independent scene, where she&#8217;s a former <strong>Reality of Wrestling (ROW)<\/strong> Diamonds Division Champion, with a reign of 315-days. This will be the first IMPACT Knockouts title defense at an independent promotion since <strong>Jordynne Grace<\/strong> defended against <strong>Jessicka Havok<\/strong> at <strong><em>Sacrifice<\/em><\/strong> in February 2020, which was an IMPACT co-production with <strong>Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW)<\/strong>. It will be the first IMPACT Knockouts title defense held at a completely independent show since <strong>Rosemary<\/strong> defended against now <strong>All Elite Wrestling (AEW)<\/strong> star <strong>Shanna<\/strong> at a <strong>Kamikaze Pro<\/strong> show in Birmingham, England in February 2017 (Rosemary had another one at <strong>British Empire Wrestling (BEW)<\/strong> in late 2016). This will also be the first US-based indie to house a Knockouts title match since <strong>Mickie James<\/strong> defended her title at a series of shows for <strong>Big Time Wrestling<\/strong> in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Maryland (against <strong>Matt Hardy<\/strong>&#8216;s wife, then wrestling as <strong>Reby Sky<\/strong>) in 2013.<\/p>\n<p><em>Stay tuned to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_self\">Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/a>\u00a0for more on this and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
