00:00Falling Tag Team Match is scheduled for one fall and is for the TNA Knockout World Tag Team Championship!
00:14Introducing first, the challengers, the team of Jesse McKay, Cassie Lee, the Inspiration!
00:28I was talking about the history between these two teams. History is important when it comes to the Inspiration.
00:34Cassie and Jesse famously won the Knockout World Tag Team titles in their first match in this company.
00:40Back at Bound for Glory 2021.
00:43That is a hell of a statement they made that night.
00:46They're going to have to inspire themselves, bring that kind of energy, that kind of level of competition,
00:52because you know the elegance brand has every drink.
00:56Give me that microphone!
00:58Why do the introductions are on here? Cut that music!
01:02Nobody is here to see the desperation!
01:08In fact, I'd like to know how the hell you Aussies crossed the border, you migrants!
01:14You know, I've got three words to describe you people who believe in these girls.
01:21Disgusting, grotesque, and degenerates!
01:27Now I know why all the good-looking people come from New Jersey!
01:33Speaking of good-looking, I would like to introduce you to the sexiest woman in this entire building!
01:47And they are proud to be an American!
01:51Please welcome the DNA Knockouts Tag Team Champions of the World!
01:57Heather and Ash by Elegance!
02:05If there's one thing an international iconic brand loves, it's a moment to shine!
02:12And oh my god! With those torches of liberty!
02:16The Elegance brand here on TNA's biggest night!
02:20They just shine brighter than the rest!
02:22I mean, who's going to stop them?
02:24Elegance!
02:26G.M. Miller brought up an excellent point moments ago.
02:28You have the personal concierge at ringside.
02:31You also have M by Elegance at ringside.
02:34Are Ash and Heather not capable of having a straight-up two-on-two tag team matchup?
02:39Are they in the match?
02:41Are they standing on the apron, holding the tag rope, ready to tag in?
02:45No!
02:46They're out there, oral support, brand support, PR support, having support.
02:51I know it's a rare thing for you.
02:53Ash and Heather have reigned for 127 days as the Knockouts World Tag Team Champions.
02:59This is Heather's first Slammiversary.
03:03This is Ash's second Slammiversary.
03:06Remember last year headlined the event challenging Jordan Grace for the Knockouts World Championship.
03:12And Ash by Elegance just so happens to be the number one contender to the Knockouts World Championship after Slammiversary.
03:20That's right, after that brilliant play in that battle royal.
03:25Absolutely elegant.
03:28Ash by Elegance really feeling herself tonight here at Slammiversary.
03:32This is what it's all about, the TNA Knockouts World Tag Team titles.
03:38Every TNA Championship will be defended tonight except the International Championship as a part of Slammiversary.
03:46This is just a taste of what's to come this evening.
03:49The fans still filing into the UBS Arena on Long Island, New York.
03:53A record-setting crowd is expected this evening.
03:58And the people may still be filing in, as you say, but the energy is already starting to come off the chain.
04:05And even in the ring here, as the hostilities have grown over the last several weeks.
04:11Of course, the big culmination at that meet-and-greet scenario a couple of weeks back.
04:16The inspiration causing a lot of trouble, Tom.
04:19This is Jesse McKay to start things off against Heather by Elegance.
04:23I don't know how you're saying the inspiration created the problem.
04:26I think it was the Elegance brand who created the problem.
04:28Ash by Elegance was the one who was fined $5,000 by TNA for a conduct tag.
04:33Look, and despite that heinous, heinous action and disciplinary action,
04:38she paid her fine and she is here proudly defending these titles.
04:42But look out! The inspiration of Rulon the Roost!
04:46Oh, absolutely inspirational and iconic!
04:50They put their hands on their hips. Like, I could do that.
04:54How dare you downplay Magnificence!
04:57Well, ladies and gentlemen, if you've scanned the QR code on your screen,

05:04Use the promo code SLAM25 for 10% off the annual VIP membership on TNA Plus.
05:09It also includes all our pay-per-views, especially tonight's Slammiversary.
05:14And look at that! Behind the referee's back.
05:17A shot, a forearm to the face of Jesse McKay, courtesy of Ash by Elegance.
05:23Beautiful play there by the Elegance brand.
05:26That's exactly what I was saying moments ago.
05:28The numbers at ringside, these tactics, the outright cheating by the Elegance brand,
05:33that's what helped them retain the titles a number of times.
05:36Well, maybe the inspiration should inspire some friendship in the back.
05:40And, you know, maybe they'd have someone out here backing them up.
05:43Oh, yes. God forbid that people just fight their matches,
05:46fight their battles in life one-on-one.
05:48Oh, let's do it with a lot of people on the outside to back up people,
05:51because you can't get it done on your own.
05:56Now Jesse whipped into the corner.
05:58Cassie Lee taking a swipe there at Ash.
06:00Oh, and a back elbow from Ash by Elegance.
06:03Heather follows it up with a drop kick.
06:05Incredible athleticism.
06:07Heather the cover.
06:08Trying to retain and a kick out.
06:11Still to come tonight here on the countdown to Slammiversary,
06:14we will see the TNA International Champion, Steve Macklin,
06:18team up with Jake Something and Mance Warner,
06:20his recent opponents to try and fend off the threat of fourth rope.
06:25We'll see Zilla Fatou, Real One, and Josh Bishop in action
06:29against three of TNA's best here on the countdown to Slammiversary.
06:33Oh, and a kick right to the head.
06:37Illegal contact here by the Elegance brand behind the referee's back.
06:42And the Elegance brand runs deep and runs strong.
06:46Can I say trying to get the referee's attention for the cover
06:49and a kick out.
06:51That's the trouble when you're in these tag team scenarios.
06:54You can get all hot and bothered about it on the apron there,
06:57but you're only going to cause more of a distraction,
06:59allowing more of this to happen to your own tag partner.
07:02Ooh.
07:07Ash by Elegance trying to inspire some bruises on Jessie McKay here.
07:16Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.
07:18Oh.
07:19Did I hear correctly backstage?
07:21Ash was telling people that she, quote, paid to be here.
07:24Yeah, that's what I said after that heinous disciplinary action.
07:27She paid her fine.
07:28Yes.
07:29She didn't do something grandiose and noble.
07:31She got in trouble.
07:32She paid a fine.
07:33It was a ridiculous fine as it was.
07:35That was her point.
07:36She's been, she's suffered too much,
07:38but defending the titles means that much that she was willing to do it.
07:42She could have said, well, I'm not willing to do it.
07:44I'm not willing to show up.
07:45Oh, the Elegance Brand stuck in the corner now.
07:49An opportunity here for Cassie Lee.
07:52Cassie Lee trying to wipe out the Elegance Brand.
07:56Look at this.
07:57Ooh.
07:58Big spin kick by Cassie.
08:01And it's turned this championship matchup completely on his head
08:05for the Elegance Brand here.
08:07Oh, and down goes Ash.
08:12Big kick right to the face there from Cassie Lee.
08:16Not done yet.
08:17Hooks the Fisherman.
08:18Got it.
08:19Beautiful.
08:20Absolutely perfect.
08:21Oh, and nearly captured the titles.
08:23Great resilience there from Heather by Elegance.
08:28Who now, yeah, desperately looking for a tag.
08:31And Ash is nowhere to be found.
08:34So Heather's going to have to deal with Cassie Lee.
08:37Ooh.
08:38Big open palm strike.
08:39She does, Tom.
08:40Look at that.
08:41On a tag made there by Ash.
08:46Not sure if Cassie Lee's quite aware of it.
08:48Look at this.
08:49Ooh.
08:50I was thinking, sit down Spanish fly there.
08:53That's Cassie Lee out of the corner,
08:56sending Ash across the ring into the Inspirations corner.
09:00It's another one of those spin kicks.
09:02And now, oh, my God.
09:03Look at this.
09:04Trying to set up Ash by Elegance on the top rope.
09:07Titles on the line here.
09:13Cassie Lee's got an opportunity here.
09:15One-on-one right now with Ash by Elegance.
09:18Superplex off of the top.
09:22Go for the cover.
09:23Try to win the Knockouts World Tag Team titles.
09:26There's M to put Ash's foot on the bottom rope.
09:32Just in the nick of time, it pays to have friends.
09:37And the Elegance brand dragging Ash away from danger.
09:41Oh, no.
09:42In just a moment, there's Jesse McKay.
09:48Oh, look out from the second turnbuckle.
09:50No, no, no.
09:51Cassie Lee shuts down the Elegance brand.
10:00It's basically four on two here, Ray Walton.
10:02Now back inside the ring.
10:04The Inspiration trying to set up for the Idolizer.
10:06Trying to win the tag titles.
10:08Not like this.
10:09Oh, and a spear from Heather.
10:12Oh, wait a minute.
10:13More involvement by M.
10:15That torch right to the face.
10:19And could it be as simple as this?
10:23Rarified air from Ash by Elegance.
10:26And yes, that's gotta be it.
10:29The Elegance brand puts away the Inspiration.
10:31Here are your winners and still the TNA Knockouts World Tag Team Champions, Heather and Ash by Elegance.
10:48The Elegance brand runs deep and it pays to have friends, to have a brand behind your back, a brand you can stand on and one that pays dividends.
11:02The Elegance brand holding on to their tag team titles here as we continue this evening on the countdown to Slammiversary.
