First matches signed for TNA Sacrifice, both feature WWE NXT talent
The first two matches are set for TNA Sacrifice on March 14, both featuring talent from WWE NXT.
As revealed during Thursday’s live TNA Impact, Knockouts World Champion Masha Slamovich will defend against WWE NXT’s Cora Jade at Sacrifice.
Jade appeared on Thursday’s live Impact in a sneak attack on Slamovich, with authority figure Santino Marella later making the title bout official for the Friday, March 14 TNA Plus special.
A six-man tag team match will also take place at Sacrifice, with NXT’s Wes Lee, Tyson Dupont, and Tyriek Igwe teaming against The Rascalz (Zachary Wentz & Trey Miguel) and Ace Austin. Wentz and Miguel defeated Dupont and Igwe in tag team action on Thursday’s show, with Lee and Austin ringside. Lee issued the challenge for the match at Sacrifice which was later officially announced.
A Knockouts Tag Team match with Spitifre’s Jody Threat and Dani Luna defending against Ash by Elegance and Heather by Elegance was also hinted at on the show, but TNA has yet to officially add it to the Sacrifice card.
Nic Nemeth’s return from his storyline suspension for hitting Marella with a superkick will also end at Sacrifice as the former World Champion announced he will be making his comeback on the show.
