The Knockouts World Championship match is set for IMPACT No Surrender.
Mickie James doesn't have to wait very long for her next challenge, as even though her Last Rodeo saw a happy conclusion, she is now scheduled to face Masha Slamovich at No Surrender on February 21
Masha earned this opportunity on January 13 at IMPACT Hard to Kill by defeating Killer Kelly, Taylor Wilde, and Deonna Purrazzo. She did not wait long to cash in her opportunity.
At Hard To Kill, Mickie James toppled Jordynne Grace to reclaim the Knockouts World Title and bring her Last Rodeo to a triumphant conclusion. But on that same night, Masha Slamovich conquered not one, not two but three other Knockouts to become the new #1 Contender for the division’s top prize. Following James’ victory in a six-person tag team match just days later on IMPACT!, she was confronted by Slamovich who issued her a symbolic death warrant. We can now confirm that Mickie James will defend the Knockouts World Title against Masha Slamovich in a first-time-ever matchup at No Surrender. Will James remain at the top of the mountain? Or will it all come crashing down at the hands of Masha Slamovich?
The stars of IMPACT will show No Surrender LIVE February 24th from Sam’s Town in Las Vegas, streaming on IMPACT Plus, YouTube for IMPACT Ultimate Insiders and FITE. Tickets are on-sale now at Ticketmaster.com.
