Don’t tell Ash By Elegance that wrestling is fake. She’s got the cuts and bruises to prove it’s not.
Ash challenged Jordynne Grace for the Knockouts World Championship in a “Match By Elegance” on Thursday night’s episode of TNA Impact. The match featured “elegant” weapons like a pink chair covered in feathers, diamonds, and plenty of outside interference.
Grace walked away with the win after Spitfire (Jody Threat and Dani Luna) and Rosemary chased off the opposition. She finally hit Shades of Samoa to retain her title.
Ash By Elegance did not walk away from the match unscathed, as she revealed that she suffered two significant injuries during the bout.
Ash showed photos of the hematoma on her leg and the gash on her scalp that required glue and staples to close.
“Don’t tell me THIS SHIT IS FAKE!!!- Hematoma on leg & Glue & staples,” Ash By Elegance wrote on Twitter. “But I’d do it again – I love this shit.”
Ash By Elegance on why she joined TNA
Ash By Elegance recently spoke with Sportskeeda and shared why she joined TNA. The former Dana Brooke said Tommy Dreamer and Gail Kim were a big draw for her to join the company after she was released by WWE. She also noted that creative freedom was another selling point.
“TNA is, I feel like, a land of open creativity. It lets you explore many, many different options. You know, there are other different companies out there that I have talked to and I was in negotiations with. And then one thing that drew me to TNA is Tommy Dreamer and Gail Kim. They were like, ‘Listen, we let our talent have creative freedom. Yes, we will help you and take that creativity to the next level and bring it to life.’. That’s something that drew me to TNA.
“Also, watching the women’s Knockout Division, I feel as though it’s the best of the best. These women are hungry. They go in the ring, like, I’ve been honored and blessed to sit ringside for a lot of Jordan’s matches. And seeing what they do and seeing that they put their heart and soul into the ring is amazing. And I’m super passionate about wrestling.”
