Notes from Fridayâ€s TNA Victory Road event.
Along with a new TNA Knockouts Champion, a new International Champion was crowned on Friday. Kazarian emerged as the new champion after Steve Maclin was distracted by AAAâ€s El Mesias, who appeared at ringside. Maclin took out Mesias with a dive, but immediately got back up. That gave Kazarian an opening, kicking the ropes as Maclin was re-entering the ring then followed up with a slingshot cutter to become the new International Champion.
Earlier in the night, Mustafa Ali faced off against Moose, with the winnerâ€s team getting the advantage in the upcoming Hardcore War bout at Bound for Glory next month. The finish came when the belly dancers for Aliâ€s entrance surrounded the ring. One of them snuck up from behind and low blowed Moose, allowing Ali to hit the 450 splash for the win, giving his team the advantage heading into Bound for Glory.
Originally, the Elegance Brand (Heather & M by Elegance) were set to defend the Knockouts Tag Team titles against The IInspriation on Friday. However, after Ash by Elegance announced she would have to step away from in-ring competition and vacate the Knockouts title, Santino Marella announced the Knockouts Tag Team title match would be moved to this Thursdayâ€s Impact Wrestling.Â
A battle royal took place instead, with Kelani Jordan and Lei Ying Lee qualifying for the title match later in the night, with Jordan becoming the new champion.
