00:02The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:07Introducing first from Chicago, Illinois, Elena Black.
00:14Elena Black might be walking into this match in a foul mood.
00:18It was back at Sacrifice, her rivalry with Mara Sade reached a new level as
00:23they competed in that no disqualifications match.
00:27Unfortunately, it was Sade who got the victory that night.
00:31So Elena Black looking to bounce back here on impact.
00:35Unfortunate for Elena Black.
00:37Sade driving Black into thumbtacks that night, right here in New Orleans.
00:47And her opponent, accompanied by Harley Hudson from Belfast, Ireland,
00:56Myla Grace.
00:58This is a tremendous opportunity for Myla Grace, who is competing in her first
01:03singles match ever on TNA Thursday Night Impact.
01:09Myla Grace has competed with Harley Hudson in multiple tag team matches over the
01:15months here in TNA.
01:18TNA singles match debut right here on AMC.
01:21High pressure situation.
01:23Can that girl rise to the occasion?
01:25Still to come this evening here on AMC, Mustafa Ali of Order 4 will address his TNA International
01:33Championship matchup against Trey Miguel this Saturday at Rebellion.
01:37Live on pay-per-view in TNA Plus in Cleveland, Ohio.
01:41And in our main event, the Hardys set to defend the TNA World Tag Team titles
01:46against the righteous in a tables match.
01:49Who never wins will move on to Rebellion to defend the TNA World Tag Team titles
01:54against the system.
01:55Also, TNA Wrestling would like to send a thank you to The Mortuary here in New Orleans for
02:00their contributions to Impact.
02:02Head to themortuary.live for more information.
02:06Ray, well, we know Elena Black wants to get into Knockouts World Championship contention.
02:11Meanwhile, Myla Grace has all the opportunity to punch a ticket here in the Knockouts Division
02:17out here on her own.
02:18Look at this.
02:19Oh, shoulders down.
02:21Oh, and a kick out.
02:23We've seen how plenty of stars recently here in TNA Wrestling, the likes of former TNA World
02:29Champion Joe Hendry, the reigning X Division Champion Leon Slater, have lived in the United
02:35Kingdom and traveled all the way here to the United States to be a part of TNA Wrestling.
02:40You can add Myla Grace to that list and prove of her commitment.
02:45Plenty of personality to boot.
02:48Myla Grace, of course, also a lot of time spent in Japan.
02:51She's traveled all over the world before making her way here to TNA.
02:56Does not lack in the experience department.
02:59Plenty of ability to get the opportunity here on Impact.
03:02And now Elena Black.
03:03Oh, heavy elbow strike to the spine.
03:07All the ability in the world can't prepare you for a shot like that.
03:10There's the cover.
03:11Grace able to kick out at two.
03:13What do you think Elena Black can take away from her rivalry with Mara Chaudet?
03:18To perhaps not underestimate someone who comes from a different background than you.
03:23Again, we talked about how they share time in places like NXT, but beyond that, very different
03:28upbringings in the world of pro wrestling.
03:31Maybe learning not to underestimate anybody.
03:46Just like Elena Black is trying to get it done with Myla Grace here in the ring.
03:53Black trying to slow things down.
03:55We know that this Saturday at Rebellion, the TNA Knockouts World Championship, is on the line.
04:01The aforementioned champion, Ariana Grace, scheduled to defend the title against Lei Ying Li.
04:08Such a stacked knockouts division.
04:11Challengers coming from every corner.
04:14Elena Black with the Myla Grace would love to be in that conversation, of course, too.
04:18A win here against somebody with the resume of Black would be a good start.
04:25Big connection out of the corner there by Myla Grace.
04:30That's a good start, finding a bit of a reprieve here, a bit of an opening to turn the time.
04:38Twisting suplex there by Grace.
04:41Cover, and Elena Black able to stay in this match on impact.
04:46Perhaps frustration starting to build for Grace here.
04:53Now Myla Grace, quite the high flyer.
04:56Go to the top turnbuckle.
04:57Thinking about putting away Elena Black.
05:00But Black connects with the knee.
05:02Right to the jaw.
05:03Could be just a matter of moments here.
05:06Could it be time?
05:06There it is.
05:07The blackout.
05:10Cover.
05:12Elena Black gets back in the win column here on impact.
05:17Here is your winner, Elena Black.
05:22That is exactly what Elena Black needed to do here tonight.
05:27To get back on the right foot.
05:31Take a look back here.
05:33This is the blackout.
05:35Elena Black able to score the victory against Myla Grace tonight in New Orleans.
05:41Elena Black rebounding from sacrifice two weeks ago.
05:46The path towards the knockouts world title begins with one single step.
05:52Elena Black may have just made that here tonight.
