Xia Brookside explains how she joined TNA Wrestling.
In January 2024, Brookside was announced as the company's lastest signing. This came just months after Brookside made the decision to move to the United States to pursue a full-time wrestling career.
Brookside has made the most of her short time with the promotion so far, wrestling in matches against Jordynne Grace, Tasha Steelz, and Ash By Elegance.
While speaking to Fightful for a new interview, Brookside noted that she consistently reached out to Gail Kim to inquire about opportunities in TNA.
"So when I first moved over here in July, I knew it was where I wanted to go. So I started reaching out to Gail and I was talking to her pretty much every week. I was like, ‘Hey, is there a spot yet?’ Like, ‘Where can we fit in? Is there anything open?’ Then eventually it just manifested and I ended up going there and I’m having the best time of my whole career."
Brookside also went on talk about the support she's received since coming to America.
"It’s kinda crazy. I’ve never had so many people believe and supported me as much as I have in the last four months of being in America. Like, I moved out here last July and I feel like my life has completely changed for the better. Like I’m wrestling on all of these shows, I’m now with TNA. I get to work with Gail Kim. It is incredible. There is so much support. It really is a family environment. I’ve had two pay-per- view matches now. I’ve had my first title match, which was the triple threat. We are actually going into Rebellion next. So we have Rebellion pay-per-view coming up in Las Vegas and the day after I’m gonna be taking on Ash again. We’re having a rematch because she’s a cheater. Watch the show on Thursday."
