00:00Ladies and gentlemen! Ladies and gentlemen! Hold on! We're in Brenton, Ontario, Canada! There isn't any ladies! Just a bunch of ugly Canadians!
00:15And your horrible grammar. Idiot. Colossal idiot.
00:20I'm the personal concierge here to introduce to you the only lady in this building. But unfortunately I will not be able to attend and host her at Reefside because I gotta get prepared.
00:33I gotta get prepared for something huge. The Elegance brand release later tonight. But no threat because about to make her way to the ring is one half of the TNA Knockouts Tag Team Champions.
00:47The gorgeous, the beautiful, Miss Ash by Elegance.
00:58The queen of this team. Standing tall but standing on her own tonight valiantly. How courageous is that of Ash by Elegance?
01:10And we're getting a launch later? There's something big planned. Even I haven't heard on this.
01:17This past weekend at Under Siege, which you can relive now at any time on demand on TNA Plus, we saw Ash and Heather defend their TNA World Tag Team Championships in a match by Elegance. No count outs, no disqualifications against Spitfire.
01:34In the midst of that matchup, it was Maggie Lee who's undergoing a makeover with the Elegance brand, assisting Ash and Heather in their defense of the tag titles.
01:44And as a result, it was a do or die matchup. Spitfire has disbanded.
01:49And her opponent from Chongqing, China, Lady Lee!
02:16Also this past weekend at Under Siege, it was Masha Slamovich who defended her TNA Knockouts World Championship against Victoria Crawford.
02:28After the fact, Masha Slamovich called out Laying Lee, laying down a challenge for Laying Lee to step up to the champion. A decision we don't often see from standing champions.
02:41Well, we know Laying Lee to being a fighter that she is, Masha Slamovich has kept a close eye on this entire Knockouts roster, has been impressed by Lee.
02:51And to your point though, rare as it is, it's kind of refreshing to see, so this is the opportunity granted to her, bestowed by the Sheriff himself, Robert Stone.
03:03To that point, to that point, Slamovich wanted to defend the title against Lee that same night, back-to-back at Under Siege.
03:11However, Robert Stone would not allow it, saying that Laying Lee has to earn a title shot.
03:17So this is a de facto number one continuous match. I would imagine Robert Stone would grant Ashby Elegance a Knockouts World title shot if she were to win this.
03:29The irony in this entire situation, as I have said many, many times, is that Victoria Crawford did nothing to earn a title shot in this company, yet she got it thanks to Robert Stone.
03:41Right now, Ashby Elegance, I think, is losing her mind.
03:44No, no, no. She's intimidating her opponent, playing mind games.
03:48Whoa! Whoa! Easy, easy.
03:52We know what kind of a talented striker Laying Lee is, of course. If you haven't seen it, just this past May 17th, she made her combat sports debut.
04:01Of course, she trains at the well-known jungle MMA in Orlando, and she actually won her debut.
04:07That is no easy feat in the world of mixed martial arts.
04:11So Ash might want to be careful.
04:13I will agree.
04:14Taunting, maybe the most lethal striker in TNA Wrestling, sounds like a terrible idea.
04:20There's a cover, shoulders down, and a kick out here by Ash.
04:23Watch out for those kicks, but watch out here.
04:25Cover, shoulders pressed down, and a kick out.
04:27Wait, but here's the thing, Tom, I'm gonna spit some of your own words back at you.
04:32Wrestlers don't make matches, correct?
04:35Correct.
04:36So even the champion, Masha Slamovich, can't just come out and make a match live on the BLE like that.
04:42Ooh. I understand your point, and the match didn't get made.
04:46Exactly.
04:47I don't know if it's put again.
04:48Robert Stone, is he actually in charge?
04:51Or is it really Santino Morello, the true director of authority?
04:54Maybe Santino would have granted that matchup in the moment.
04:57He's a sheriff, Tom. He's got a badge.
04:59Good lord.
05:00Speaking of Santino Morello, for the first time in TNA history, father and daughter will team up together.
05:06NXT's Ariana Grace and Santino Morello will face Tessa Blanchard and Robert Stone.
05:11Also, we will hear from the new TNA world champion, Trick Williams, later on tonight in the wake of WWE Battleground,
05:20and in our main event, a true TNA champion.
05:24Steve Macklin will defend his international title up against Matt Cardona in a first time ever matchup.
05:30That is still to come. Cover kick out.
05:33Ash by Elegance almost spoiling the chances of Lei Ying Li looking for that knockouts world title shot.
05:44Ash by Elegance taking her time here.
05:46Ash is no stranger to the TNA knockouts world championship picture.
05:50Challenge Jordan Grace for the title at Slammiversary last year.
05:55The first match by Elegance was between Grace and Ash once upon a time last year.
06:01That's right.
06:02Cover, hook to the leg and a kick out.
06:06So that does mean there's the outside possibility if Ash would win this,
06:10potentially become number one contender, potentially a double champion.
06:14Oh, we should be so lucky.
06:17Yes, I would have to imagine that Robert Stone, excuse me, Sheriff Robert Stone, in his wisdom,
06:23even though this was made for the opportunity for Lei Ying Li, I mean, if Ash by Elegance spoils that,
06:29I think she deserves the chance more than anyone.
06:32And Lei, look out.
06:35Lee able to escape for just a moment.
06:37Ash, oh, in for the leg drop.
06:39Oh, that's a shame.
06:40Back to tailbone, it's very serious, Tom.
06:44It's now, though, refocusing on Lee here.
06:48Lee, who defeated Rosemary one-on-one a few weeks ago.
06:52The only person to defeat laying Lee one-on-one in this company, Tessa Blanchard, back at sacrifice.
06:58Ooh, and a knee strike right to the face.
07:02Talk about those dangerous strikes.
07:04Lee, oh, my God, coming back to life here.
07:08Some of that warrior spirit that Masha Slamovich has seen, and wants to go up against.
07:10Four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, two, yeah!
07:34Out and along with Canada.
07:37Can Lee put it away?
07:40Off the exploder, here's the cover, hook to the leg, and a kick out from Ash.
07:46Ash by Elegance is not only beautiful and perfect in almost every way, she's resilient.
07:56Way more than people give her credit for.
08:01Now, up onto the shoulders.
08:03Lee Ying Lee, what you thinking about here?
08:05Oh, wait a minute, a shot right to the back of the knee by Ash.
08:08Now, ooh, double knees.
08:10Here's the cover, tight cover and a kick out.
08:14Almost shut down the opportunity there for Lee Ying Lee.
08:19You think you're a fighter, huh?
08:21You think you're a fighter?
08:24Oh, my.
08:27Hell hath no fury.
08:29Like Ash by Elegance scorned, I guess.
08:33Now, look at this.
08:34Laying Lee is asking for more.
08:38Asking you shall receive, I suppose.
08:41Laying Lee's not intimidated.
08:54Go Ash!
08:56Fire up!
08:57Go Super Saiyan on Earth!
08:59Oh, my God!
09:00Oh!
09:01Not like that!
09:02Oh, it's thunderstruck!
09:03But not done yet.
09:04Look at the strength of Laying Lee!
09:05Down goes Ash by Elegance!
09:06Cover!
09:07Two, three!
09:08Laying Lee wins!
09:09Here is your winner, Laying Lee!
09:11What a victory for Laying Lee!
09:12Taking out one half of the standing.
09:13TNA Knockouts World Tag Team Champions in Ash by Elegance.
09:14Well, uh, not standing anymore.
09:15But still, Laying Lee.
09:16Laying Lee, taking out one half of the standing.
09:21TNA Knockouts World Tag Team Champions in Ash by Elegance.
09:22Well, uh, not standing anymore.
09:23But still, Laying Lee, I sincerely hope that she's proven herself that she is worthy of a TNA
09:49Knockouts World Title shot, just like Masha Slamovich was saying this past weekend at Under Siege.
09:56Your point, it was Slamovich herself who laid out the challenge, wanted to be tested by Laying Lee.
10:16I have to imagine she's more than giddy at this outcome.
10:20215 days as the TNA Knockouts World Champion.
10:25Slamovich wants more competition!
10:35I'll see you out against all odds.
10:38One week from tomorrow, live on TNA Plus in the Greater Phoenix area.
10:49Slamovich and Lee for the Knockouts World Title and against all odds.
10:54One week from tomorrow, stay near CNA night.
10:55Slamovich.
10:59I like you, Ryan cuánto, live.
11:00Two times from today.
11:01The crash...
11:15This crash is przy층y!
