Welcome to the TNA Knockouts section...
TNA
Wrestling (Total Nonstop Action Wrestling) was launched
in May of 2002 by Jeff Jarrett and Jerry Jarrett. Since
its launch, female wrestlers, managers and personalities
have been a big part of its programming. Total Nonstop
Action Wrestling aired weekly on Pay-Per-Views, with the
likes of Taylor Vaughn (Cathy Dingman), Alexis Laree (Mickie
James), Francine Fournier, Daffney, Elektra (Donna Adamo)
and more. The very first women's rivalry was the short
lived, which saw "Miss TNA" Taylor Vaughn and Francine
Fournier feud.
In the years that followed, the promotion continued airing weekly on Pay-Per-View and TNA Xplosion on cable. We saw the likes of Trinity (Stephanie Finochio), Desire (Kim Nielsen), Alexis Laree (Mickie James), Traci Brooks, Simply Luscious and more.
By
2007, Total Nonstop Action Wrestling had a full-fledged
Women's Division, with the women of TNA Wrestling marketed
as "TNA Knockouts." In the years that followed, women
such as Gail Kim, Awesome Kong, Jackie Moore, Traci Brooks,
ODB, Christy Hemme, Angelina Love and Velvet Sky helped propel the TNA
Knockouts Division to become one of the top women's divisions
in the United States of America.
