The former Dana Brooke is making her TNA Wrestling in-ring debut this weekend.
TNA has announced that Ash by Elegance will be in action at the promotion's television tapings in Orlando, Florida this Saturday (January 20). It's the second night of a two-night TNA taping at Osceola Heritage Park in Orlando.
Brooke's opponent for the match has not been announced.
At Hard to Kill last Saturday, Brooke made a surprise appearance and was shown watching the Knockouts Championship match between Trinity and Jordynne Grace. Grace defeated Trinity to win the title.
It was officially confirmed on Wednesday that Brooke has signed a TNA contract.
Brooke was a guest on Busted Open Radio this week and explained her new Ash by Elegance character:
So Ash by Elegance is a different side of me, but I try and live my life every single day as being super elegant. Elegant is a word -- but I feel like it has a variety and many multiple meanings of it. It’s classiness, it’s elegance, it’s beautiful, it just means so much that I’m definitely going to bring that element into the ring and show everyone what class and elegance truly means.
Brooke was released by WWE in September 2023 during a round of roster cuts. Saturday will be the first non-WWE match of her career.
The announced lineups for Friday and Saturday's TNA tapings are listed below. The matches will air on future episodes of Impact.
