Cora Jade Targets Masha Slamovich with Bold Statement on 1/23 TNA iMPACT

Cora Jade just made her presence felt in TNA in a big way. The former NXT standout took things to another level on the January 23 TNA iMPACT, showing up mid-match to send a chilling message to Knockouts Champion Masha Slamovich.

During a tag team match where Slamovich and Spitfire took on Rosemary, Ash, and Heather by Elegance, Jade came down to ringside carrying a mysterious folder. As she handed it to Slamovich, the contents were revealed—a photo of Masha with a massive red X over it. The distraction was enough to throw Slamovich off her game, allowing the opposition to roll up Spitfire for the win.

This was just the latest shot fired in the brewing war between Jade and Slamovich. After confronting Masha at TNA Genesis, Jade made it clear she wants to take the Knockouts Championship—and she’s willing to play mind games to get it. On Busted Open Radio, Jade had already issued a warning, saying:

“You know, I keep seeing all these things online and everyone thinks I can’t hang with Masha since she’s big and strong, and she is. She is one hell of a talented competitor, I’ve seen her have hardcore and regular matches. I think people forget that before I got here. I was doing hardcore matches. I had a deathmatch right before I got signed. Masha thinks I can’t step up to her level and compete in that type of environment? I can and I would love to. After I’m done whooping her ass, I’m gonna take that TNA Knockouts Championship.”

Now, Jade has proven she’s not just talking—she’s acting. And if this is how she’s starting things off, imagine what’s next. Will Slamovich retaliate, or is Jade already in her head?

Should Cora Jade get a shot at the Knockouts Title? And do you think Masha Slamovich is in trouble? Let us know in the comments!
