The Last Rodeo has been leading to this.
Mickie James will face Jordynne Grace for the IMPACT Knockouts Championship on Friday, January 13, 2023, and if she loses, she is done wrestling for IMPACT. When Mickie James first set out on her Last Rodeo, she did so with full acknowledgment that the endgame for her was always going to be the Knockouts Championship.
Now, Jordynne Grace has the chance to become immortal by retiring Mickie James and Mickie James has the chance to prove that she's still got it, stamping her legacy with one more World Championship.
For Jordynne Grace and Mickie James, the stakes have never been higher. Following her successful Knockouts World Title defense over Masha Slamovich in a grueling Last Knockout Standing match, Grace has turned her attention towards the legendary Mickie James. For months, James has been working her way through the ranks of the Knockouts Division, in what she called The Last Rodeo. With her career on the line, every match was must-win for “Hardcore Country”. And after her victory over longtime rival Deonna Purrazzo, James was confronted by the reigning Knockouts World Champion who deemed that she had successfully worked her way back to the top. Now two of the greatest Knockouts in IMPACT history are set to collide with both the Knockouts World Title and James’ career at stake – and something has got to give. Grace vs James, Title vs Career – it all goes down at Hard To Kill.
