The previously announced Knockouts Championship match that was due to air tonight has been postponed.
Gail Kim was due to get her title rematch against Brooke Tessmacher on Impact Wrestling tonight, but TNA now reports that the match will take place next week.
The storyline reason for the switch according to TNA is: “Gail Kim lodged a protest through her lawyer and upon further review of the contract, a clause was found preventing the title match from happening tonight! Gail’s lawyer had a clause hidden in the contract that required the former champion 8 days notice of her rematch.”
Instead of the title match, Gail and Madison Rayne will take on Brooke and Tara tonight on Impact.
TNA has a pay per view this Sunday, but the fact that the title match has been postponed till next week rather than on the pay per view suggests the Knockouts won’t be featured on Sunday’s card.

I thought Brooke and Tara had a mini feud from the Number 1 contender match?
This could be interesting.

They did. But if you follow either, or both, of them on twitter they tweeted that they “made up” or “put their differences” aside and went out for dinner or something along those lines lol

OK, that’s an unusual way to postpone a match…but I agree, I suspect there won’t be a KO match on the PPV (there wasn’t last year), so this makes sense. There are already 8 matches on the PPV card, so it’d be rushed anyway.

So my prediction for tonight based on nothing but a crazy guess.
Madison’s crush is going to turn out to be Earl Hebner. Something will happen between him and her in the match that causes Gail to get pinned by Miss Tessmacher. It will also split up Madison and Gail, or at least very much put a wedge between them and Madison then costs Gail in the rematch next week. Madison as a face feuds with Gail. Miss Tessmacher moves on to feud with Mickie James once she goes heel.

ah, that reminds me of how on the house show circuit, when people would chant “you screwed bret” during a knockouts match earl was officiating, angelina love would grab the microphone and say she actually didn’t screw bret… lol.

Ha. I was thinking that it might be Earl, too. It’s classic TNA booking.

Nice call on that…..

at least they bothered to make up a lame excuse i guess? and hey, we’re still getting a match.. so yeah, a few things can come of this.. madison and her crush, tara/tess not being on the same level.

I am happy for Tara but i want Sarita and Rosita, i think is better TNT VS Sarita Rosita and Gail on the announce table. I love the match between TNT and Sarita & Rosita IN HARDCORE JUSTICE

Tara turns on Tessmacher tonight, and Madison on Gail. LOL
