Tasha Steelz will be facing off against Masha Slamovich for the TNA Knockouts Championship at tonight’s Final Resolution pay-per-view event, and she says she’s ready to capture the title.
While speaking on a recent edition of the “Gabby AF” podcast, Steelz sent a message to Slamovich. She said,
“Masha, she just got the championship, so we’d have to see. But I don’t think we’re gonna see very long once Final Resolution comes because mother is ready to take back the throne. I let the other girls borrow it. I let Jordynne borrow it because she’s got that press time and going to the Royal Rumble and going to NXT back and forth, congrats to her. All power to you.”
She continued, “But at the same time, mother is ready to show these little girls around here that yes, I am the OG, one of the OGs, and of course, I got [Alisha Edwards] with me. So we like two OGs ready to take the throne back and let them know that hey, we ain’t messing around this time. We let y’all have your little fun, but we’re ready to take it back. That’s what queens do.”
AJ Francis will be facing off against Nic Nemeth for the TNA World Championship at tonight’s Final Resolution pay-per-view event, and he says Nemeth pushed to work with him.
During a recent appearance on the “Wrestleholics” podcast to promote tonight’s event, Francis commented on the match, why he doesn’t care about the “losers” in the comment section, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On how the match came about: “I’m gonna give you a little tidbit of information nobody else knows yet. He didn’t even tell me this, I found out through Tommy. Nic Nemeth was the one that wanted to work with me. Nic Nemeth said he wanted to work with me. Nic Nemeth worked with me one time in a tag match. It was me and KC [Navarro] versus him and Joe Hendry. He came out of that saying, ‘I need to work something with AJ.’ So Nic Nemeth is one of the most respected wrestlers in this business. Jeff Hardy said that, after working with First Class, that he got his confidence back. Jeff Hardy said that. Matt Hardy stands on that for me. Rey Mysterio will stand on that for me. PCO, Rhyno, Tommy Dreamer, Mark Henry, Booker T stand on that for me. So it’s like why do I give a s**t what some loser in the comments thinks? I don’t.”
On the opportunity to challenge for the title: “This is my Super Bowl. Me versus Nic Nemeth for the TNA World Title is my Super Bowl….What more could you ask for? This is the moment that I was put on earth for. This is my biggest moment, biggest opportunity of my career, and I’m gonna show everybody that I deserve this opportunity.”
