TNA’s newest championship has a winner. The Knockouts TV title tournament concluded Thursday night live on Impact (Aug. 27, 2026), and the inaugural champion is elegant.
M by Elegance wrestled Jada Stone in the final of the 16-Knockout tournament. It was the leggy leaper versus the speedy spark plug. M towered in height over Stone, and that advantage helped M throughout the match. She was able to catch the smaller opponent for counter maneuvers. When Stone executed a Spanish Fly followed by a moonsault, M reached her long leg to touch the ropes to break the pin.
M also used her brains for defense against Stone’s signature moves. M put her knees up to block a moonsault. Stone was never able to connect on her handspring cutter finisher. M blocked it once midway through, and she blocked it again in the end. That sequence led to Stone working a cazadora roll-up. M took control for a counter to spike Stone on a piledriver for the winning pin.
It’s interesting to note that there was no interference in this victory. Even though the Elegance Brand was ringside, they did not cheat. The clean win is a breakout moment for M’s singles career. She is already a two-time Knockouts tag team championship. Now, she gets the extra exposure and development opportunities to defend the Knockouts TV title in future defenses on Impact.
