Traci Brooks was an IMPACT Knockout original, though she was known more for her managerial services than her in-ring bouts.
Traci's husband Frankie Kazarian is still involved at IMPACT Wrestling, and Traci has been around the shows with her husband. Frankie is currently feuding with Eddie Edwards, who has his wife Alisha by his side.
Appearing on Reffin' It Up with Brian Hebner, Traci was asked if she would return to help her husband.
"No. Alisha is an active wrestler and I'm not. What am I going to do? He doesn't need his wife. I did have fun last year at Slammiversary. I got involved and got to hit Maria, that was fun. They're like, 'Hop over the rail.' You mean open the rail gingerly and step around it? I don't hop. That was a fun night. I'm good at home. I like going to shows and watching. Slammiversary was fun. Seeing the crew and talent is fun. I don't think I have that itch anymore. I love being a mom. I love eating ice cream in my yoga pants. I'm happy in the state of mind I'm in. I don't know if I would ever go back. It depends. Alisha pisses me off anymore, maybe, I don't know. She looks like she has a fun face to slap. I'd like to slap Eddie," she said.
Later in the show, Traci was asked what could potentially get her to return. After naming a match against Sherri Martell as her dream bout, Traci said, "The only way would have to be something with Frankie. Not against him. God, he's stiff. It would have to be something with Frankie so [Frankie & Traci's child] Rebel could see. That would likely be the only thing that...I'm not going to embarrass myself and wrestle and put these girls that have worked their asses off. It would have to be something with Frankie so Rebel could see us do something together."
She noted she had fun in the lead up to Slammiversary 2022, but added, "I did a few pre-tapes and that's when I realized, 'I'm done, I don't miss this.' I messed up a few times and was holding the camera crew up. I like my little life...IMPACT is always like, 'Do you want to comeback, do you want to do something?' No, I'm good. Wrestling, sports, everything has evolved. I missed a lot of it because I didn't watch it for a while. Not for any reason, I was just too busy."
Traci stated many times during the interview that she is enjoying her life as a mom.
Kazarian is set to challenge Chris Sabin for the IMPACT X-Division Championship during the IMPACT Down Under tour.
