Mickie James Says She'll Defend The Knockouts Title At WrestleMania If She Wins The Royal Rumble

Mickie James is looking to make herstory.

On the January 27 episode of IMPACT Wrestling, Mickie James addressed the Knockouts Division and praised the accomplishments of all the women, even Deonna Purrazzo, who she also called the worst person she's ever known.

The Knockouts Champion proceeded to discuss her appearance at this Saturday's Royal Rumble event and how she will be appearing and competing as a Champion that does not belong to "them." She then said that after she wins the Royal Rumble, she will walk into WrestleMania and put the Knockouts Championship on the line in a Title vs. Title match.

Chelsea Green then jumped in the ring and asked to be her first opponent post-Rumble, but was cut off by Tasha Steelz who won the Ultimate X match at Hard to Kill. Steelz will face Mickie for the belt at No Surrender on February 19.
