In the TNA Knockouts Championship at tonight’s Final Resolution pay-per-view event, Tasha Steelz is prepared to take on Masha Slamovich, expressing confidence in her prospects for title capture.
In the recent “Gabby AF” podcast, Steelz addressed her opponent Slamovich with a message.
“Masha has only recently claimed the championship, so let’s see how it goes. Yet, I believe it won’t be long that we see when Final Resolution arrives because I’m ready to regain control. I allowed other girls to use it temporarily. I let Jordynne use it as she needed publicity time, toggling between the Royal Rumble and NXT, kudos to her. More power to you.”
She further revealed, “At the same time, I’m prepared to demonstrate to these young girls that do admit, I am an OG, one of the originals. Of course, I’ve got [Alisha Edwards] by my side. Hence, we are two originals aiming to reclaim our spot and show them that we are serious this time. We let you all have some fun, but now we’re ready to take it back. That’s what true queens do.”
Similarly, AJ Francis will be contending with Nic Nemeth for the TNA World Championship during tonight’s Final Resolution pay-per-view event. He expressed solidarity towards Nemeth’s push to work with him.
Francis revealed during his recent stint on the “Wrestleholics” podcast about the match, his disregard for the “naysayers” in the comment section among other things.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On the genesis of the match: “Here’s an insider information nobody is aware of. Nic Nemeth was the one who chose to work with me. This information, I discovered from Tommy. Nemeth had previously worked with me in a tag match with KC [Navarro], against him and Joe Hendry. His comments post that match were, ‘I need to work something with AJ.’ Hence, Nic Nemeth is one of the most revered wrestlers in the business today. Jeff Hardy made a statement about regaining his confidence after working with First Class. The likes of Matt Hardy, Rey Mysterio, PCO, Rhyno, Tommy Dreamer, Mark Henry, and Booker T stand in support of me. So, why should I bother about what some random critics have to say in the comments section? I don’t care.”
On his chances to vie for the title: “This feels like my Super Bowl. Me against Nic Nemeth for the TNA World Title is like my Super Bowl….What more could I ask for? This is the most crucial moment in my life. It’s the biggest opportunity in my career so far, and I will show everyone that I am worthy of it.”
